Leader Schumer Floor Remarks On SCOTUS’s Decision Against Gender Affirming Care

Washington, D.C. – Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) today spoke on the Senate floor on the Supreme Court’s decision to limit gender affirming care for trans Americans, which endangers lives and infringes on rights. Below are Senator Schumer’s remarks, which can also be viewed here:

The MAGA Supreme Court majority seems to have forgotten that one of its jobs is to protect Americans from discrimination.

The Republicans’ cruel crusade against trans Americans infringes on the rights of parents and the rights of kids. Once again, Republicans use these issues to divide Americans and distract them from their plans to rip health care away from millions of people.

We will keep fighting to protect the rights of all Americans.
