These appeals reveal a broader crisis: drastic cuts in funding 💸—especially via USAID and PEPFAR—have set off a cascade of challenges, putting essential supplies and services at risk ⚠️.

This moment calls for innovative strategies 💡 and urgent action to protect 🏳️‍🌈 #LGBT communities and uphold human rights worldwide. But we also need a long-term plan 📈not just to weather this crisis but to build something stronger, more resilient, and less vulnerable.

I’m concerned Peru’s Congress passed a law that, under the guise of protecting children, limits trans people's access to bathrooms based on their gender identity. This law reinforces harmful stereotypes. I urge the Peruvian government to block it.

Me preocupa que el Congreso de Perú haya aprobado una ley que, bajo el pretexto de proteger a la niñez, restringe a las personas trans el uso de baños según su identidad de género. Refuerza estereotipos dañinos. Insto al gobierno a bloquearla con sus facultades.
