The image features a stylized map of the United States with certain states highlighted in shades of blue. At the top, the text reads, "Oh, the Places I’m Allowed to Go!" in a playful, curved font. Below the map, a caption states, "THE ONLY RELATIVELY SAFE STATES FOR TRANS PEOPLE." The highlighted states represent areas that are considered safer for transgender individuals compared to others. The states shown as "relatively safe" in the image are: California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Hawaii, Illinois, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Maine, Vermont, New York, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Washington D.C.

100%, but it's even worse b/c they're doing the passport checks on domestic travel now, and anyone with the "X" vs "M" or "F" is gonna get sent to prison, so air travel isn't an option.

And, troopers in Ohio are randomly stopping people, so I'm not sure it's a safe state anymore.

@boB Rudis 🇺🇦 I haven't heard anything of people being arrested over passport markers, only of their passports being confiscated? Do you have links to any stories on this?

And Ohio notably isn't on that map.

I'll grab the links. Atlanta airport started requiring passports for domestic this week, which will mean they will do "X" checks (there's an EO forcing the passport change). We have turned trans humans back from overseas due to solely trans.

(my bad re: Ohio…been a day so far)

This is why we need high speed rail running along the border. That way those of us who don't fly can still safely travel.
