SUMMARY:Rally to Protect Trans Health Care
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, January 5\, 11am – 1pm EST\nNew Jersey Statehouse Annex Courtyard\n145 W State St\, Trenton\, NJ 08608\nRegister. \nHelp protect transgender rights! 🏳️‍⚧️ Join us to rally outside of the Statehouse Annex and demand that leadership immediately pass Bill S3491/A4656 to protect access to necessary health care for transgender patients and providers. \nThis bill is urgent\, and time is running out: While transgender and nonbinary youth\, their families and medical providers face escalating national attacks\, NJ’s Senate and Assembly leadership have allowed this critical bill to languish. With support from 75% of Democratic legislators plus thousands of community calls for action\, the problem is not a lack of support — it’s gatekeeping. And when health care and lives are at risk\, it’s DANGEROUS. \nBring signs and loud voices. Trans lives depend upon it! Join this statewide grassroots coalition led by transgender community members\, parents\, providers\, and allies. Coalition partners include WADEIn NJ\, SOMA Action\, Knitty Gritty JC Social Group\, Jersey City LGBTQ Alliance\, Indivisible Cranbury\, Desi Rainbow\, and United Progressive Democrats.

DESCRIPTION:“Friday Action Hour” — Every Friday\nJoin us at 12 noon\, on Zoom\, to TAKE ACTION together!\n➱➱ bit.ly/1st-fridays \n  \n\nJoin us on Zoom! \nTopic: Friday Action Hour\nEvery Friday\, 12 PM \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://zoom.us/j/94313960594?pwd=OTFDdUdocmY1ckZNZFRyemp6V2NiZz09 \nMeeting ID: 943 1396 0594\nPasscode: 562154 \n— \nOne tap mobile\n+16469313860\,\,94313960594#\,\,\,\,*562154# US\n+19292056099\,\,94313960594#\,\,\,\,*562154# US (New York) \n— \nDial by your location\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 929 205 6099 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n\nAt our 2023 Fall Issues Conference\, we officially announced the launch of a new initiative for UU FaithAction NJ—”First Fridays Action Hour.”  Our Action Hour is inspired by and modeled after the successful program of our sibling state action network\, UU Justice North Carolina. \nUU FaithAction NJ now hosts a one-hour Zoom meeting on the every Friday\, 12 noon to 1pm.  During that time\, we take action together\, in real-time!  For those who cannot join us at 12pm on Friday\, we provide a Google Doc with all necessary instructions. \nAn action could be almost anything\, like making a phone call to key legislators to express your support for a bill. We briefly outline the talking points\, provide you with a sample script and then the phone number of the legislators to call. And you make the call right there—in real time. \nYou don’t have to prepare.  You don’t have to commit to coming to every single Action Hour.  This is not a committee\, nor a commitment—it is a come-as-you-are-able opportunity! \nCan’t join us on a particular Friday\, or maybe noon is just never gonna work for your schedule?  No problem!  The Google Doc will have all the information you need so that you can take the action at a time convenient for you.  Not only that— we hope you will share the action with your congregation or community\, and our one little pebble can start to produce ripples.
