We need to email Senators Schiff and Padilla to urge them to use the power of their office to pressure Children’s Hospital LA to restart hormonal therapy for trans youth. This is a lifesaving treatment, and we need California institutions to stand up to the bigotry of the Trump administration. His policies will undoubtedly lead to increased suicides of transgender children and adults.
Below is a sample letter. Here are the email links:

Subject Line: Tell Children’s Hospital LA to restart hormonal therapy care for transgender youth!
Dear Senator XXX,
I am frightened and angry to learn that Children’s Hospital Los Angeles has stopped new hormone therapy treatments for transgender youth. This was an unnecessary, preemptive measure that threatens the health of our children. California is a fighting state, and no entity should bow down to the inhumane executive orders of Donald Trump.
On behalf of a vulnerable population that is being vilified by MAGA for no discernable reason other than bigotry, I implore you to use the weight of your office to pressure CHLA to rescind their decision. Our children need this life saving treatment. Without it, some will take their own lives.
Thank you for standing up for Californians!
Sincerely,
XXX
