A month ago on LGBTQ Nation, reporter Nico Lang investigated the effects of gender-affirming care bans on families of trans kids who have been forced to move out of their home states to ensure that their children could get medical care without being taken away from them. One family from Texas was living out of their van in a truck stop in Connecticut because of the increased cost of living in their new home state. Another parent made a similar move from Texas to Connecticut and noted that Connecticut launched a campaign inviting families from anti-trans states to move there but didnt do much to help with affordability.From the article:Having to move as many times as weve moved to try to keep my family safe, that alone is pretty devastating, but weve increasingly had to move to more expensive places, she says.
