The Gaylesta advocacy committee is hosting a virtual phone/email bank on Thursday, October 9th from 1:00-2:00pm. Together we will call and email Governor Newsom, urging him to sign the 8 LGBTQ+ priority bills recently passed in the California legislature by the October 13th deadline. These crucial bills include protecting trans folks' medical data and expanding access to gender-affirming HRT.

We will provide scripts for you to use during our hour-long Zoom meeting. You’ll use your own phone to call Governor Newsom, California legislators, and other key players who are connected with Newsom's office. Dislike calling? We have emails for you to send instead! Depending on your connection to the LGBTQ+ community, your script and what you share might be slightly different, but we are here to support you in breakout rooms and via direct chat. Closed captions will be available, please let us know if you have any additional access needs.

Please feel free to share the registration link with anyone who may be interested, and share our flyer on social media! This event is for anyone with a connection to or desire to support access to live-saving gender-affirming care-- including healthcare providers, family members/friends of trans youth/adults, and members of the trans community. We hope to see you there!

Sincerely,
The Gaylesta Advocacy Committee
