WE DID IT
Governor Newsom has signed the Fair Care for All Act, strengthening California’s protections against discrimination in health care coverage, including protections for transgender, gender-expansive, and intersex people.
Thank you to everyone who called, emailed, and took action with us. Together, we continue building a California where our communities can access care with dignity.
