🚨PROTEST ALERT: PATIENTS OVER POLITICS🚨
Healthcare is a human right, not a political bargaining chip. This Saturday, we're rallying at CHOC to send one message: Put your patients first.
CHOC leadership has announced they will end gender-affirming care on February 6th-weeks before any legal requirement and despite ongoing lawsuits from Lambda Legal and the ACLU against the federal government. We are demanding that CHOC executives reverse this decision, stand with their medical staff, and defend the life-saving care California's kids rely on.
We know this wasn't an easy decision for them to make, and we're here to let them know we will support them as long as they choose to stand up and refuse to comply in advance.
📍 WHERE: CHOC Hospital (1201 W. La Veta Ave,
Orange)
⏰ WHEN: Saturday, Jan 24 | 12 PM - 3 PM
🛑 TO TRUMP: STOP THE BLACKMAIL - Politics has no place in a doctor's office. We won't let federal threats dictate medical care.
🩺 TO CHOC: SUPPORT THE PATIENTS AND MEDICAL STAFF - We stand with the doctors and nurses being forced to abandon their patients, and the patients being stripped of their care.
🏳️⚧️ OUR DEMAND - CHOC leadership: Stand with us, and reverse this decision. Do not choose political survival over pediatric lives.
Organized by OCGAPNet, Pride at the Pier, and OC Indivisible.
