It's only been a  month now, but Trump's got his dirty fingers over everything already.  If you are (or have been) a government employee, YOU may have seen Donald's hands in the cookie jar.  Go to https://www.ap.org/contact-us/news-tips/ , or https://www.theguardian.com/help/ng-interactive/2017/mar/17/contact-the-guardian-securely, then go to SecureDrop, and follow the instructions.  I can't absolutely guarantee your privacy, or but the Tor network is damn good.  There are two avenues:  1) AP  or 2) The Guardian.  Good luck.

If you aren't a government employee, but you know someone who is, gently nudge him/her to do the right thing.  Don't worry if she/he initially says no.  Trump'll do something to screw up, and you will have done something to plant a seed.

If neither of these is true, you can still advance this cause.  If you have a Republican or squishy Democrat as your member of Congress, get on the phone and tell them you won't put up with this BS any more.  Tell them that you SUPPORT transgender people. Period.

BTW, especially if you are a newbie, or if you've been away for awhile from white/black/gray hat stuff, it makes a GREAT deal of sense to do a refresher course online.

ezs note:  I ran across Rev. Ed Trevors, who gave me a breath of fresh air.  Unfortunately, most of what passes off as 'Christianity' is pure crap. Fortunately, though, Ed saves the day. I may not see every line from side to side (he is a [real] Christian, I am a Baha'i), but, geez, this guy is good. I'll do my bit to promote him. To learn more about him, go to Bing AI and type 'Who is Reverend Ed Trevors?'

By the way, if you're free, Ed broadcasts live on 1) most Saturday nights at 7:30 pm and 2) most Wednesday afternoons at 2:00 pm (Eastern time). (other time zones will vary)  Look for :
