What would federal policy look like if transgender people were fully and fairly included?

What would federal policy look like if transgender people were fully and fairly included? Over the past months and years, NCTE has compiled a list of 112 separate policies that directly impact the lives of transgender people and our families that need to be added, removed or changed. Our latest publication, "Transgender Equality and the Federal Government" outlines each of these issues. We expect that some of these policies can be changed in the short term, while others will require long term activism. Some of the issues here will be at the forefront of NCTE's work in the coming year and in other areas, our partners in this work will be the ones to lead, with our support.

We believe that our community should be informed about the ways in which the federal government is impacting all of our lives. We share the responsibility for advocating for fair treatment under the law and we hope that you will play a role in making these changes.

NEW RESOURCE

"Transgender Equality and the Federal Government" was compiled by NCTE's staff, with input from dozens of individuals and organizations who brought their expertise on these diverse policies.
