We are excited to invite you to an important discussion, Holding Court: From Visibility to Victory: Defending Trans Rights, taking place on Wednesday, March 26, 2025, at 1pm. Join us for a conversation with Meghann Burke (she/her), Executive Director of the National Women’s Soccer League Players Association, Shayna Medley (they/she), Senior Litigation Staff Attorney at Advocates for Trans Equality, and Paul Spivey (he/him), Board Member at PFLAG National.

In honor of Transgender Day of Visibility on March 31, our panelists will come together to discuss the importance of the fight for the freedom to be who we authentically are. Our panelists will be delving into the current state of trans rights in the United States, including recent developments at the Supreme Court and lower courts, and the latest on United States v. Skrmetti.

Our discussion will also focus on the Trump administration’s attempts to erode trans rights. We will examine key court cases, state-level legislation, and federal policies that threaten access to healthcare, gender-affirming care, and basic civil liberties for trans people. Additionally, the event will explore the ways in which the progressive movement can come together to combat these efforts and protect the rights of trans people.

Join us as we examine the state of trans rights in the United States and discuss securing a future where trans rights are recognized, solidified, and celebrated. You can sign up to join the conversation here!
