Will California remain safe for trans kids?

I saw recently that the orange unhealthy politics in the Whitehouse decided to make it illegal nationally for any trans person under 18 to receive any form of treatment

 

My family just moved to Cali this year to get away from the repressive laws in the bible belt, as I couldn't get blockers or HRT in the deep south. 

Did we move for nothing?

For the time being Trans Children and adults will be safe for a variety of reasons, but we are feeling the noise overload too.  Trump can only have some effect on actual U.S. Funding and there are ways around that for all but a handful of our hospitals and clinics at the minute.  We have "non-cooperation" laws in place that will protect a variety of sources in the state, as well as a network of Trans specific health care centers that are not subject to Federal control as well.

Good to know. I'd hate to think that my parents swapped jobs and moved 2000 miles for nothing.  Plus I'm supposed to start HRT this month

@AinsleyTG, there are never any guarantees, especially when it comes to Federal funds, rules and courts.  But CA does have some fairly strong legal protections in place even now.  Here are some summaries:

I hope this information gives you some measure of reassurance.

Oh it's just the funding that's at risk?  While not a good thing, that's not what I was expecting. I was expecting that it was just being outlawed altogether. Mom and dad have good insurance so that's as big of a deal as it just being outlawed. 

Checked this message during lunch, going back to class. Thanks
