Hi Georgette! Good question.

For the subset of bills that aren't T-specific and also target LGB people, I'd go to the ACLU webpage.

https://www.aclu.org/legislative-attacks-on-lgbtq-rights-2024

Close the pop-up, scroll down, and select "Filter by issue."

Out of 516 current anti-LGBTQ bills, these are T-specific:

16 - barriers to accurate IDS

107 - healthcare restrictions (gender-affirming care bans)

While these explicitly target trans people, pragmatically they’ll hurt anyone who’s gender-nonconforming:

12 - public accommodation bans (bathroom bans — anyone can yell anyone out of a bathroom and challenge their gender)

203 - Restricting student & educator rights

(I believe this category would include bills that require teachers to notify parents if they believe a child is “trans” — or, realistically, any kind of queer-looking, right?)

These likely target everyone:

32 - Free speech & expression bans (I'd expect book bans and drag bans in this category)

121 - Weakening civil rights laws

104 - Other
