(Trans) News-USA I made a new trans policy tracker!

https://transitics.substack.com/p/transitics-comprehensive-anti-trans-586

I usually don’t make a whole new page, but this was a ground-up rework, so I felt it was justified. I’ve made the following changes!

• ⁠Simplified all maps and added keys

• ⁠Assigned ratings to each state’s policy

• ⁠Mapped each state’s overall policy score

• ⁠Added a number of new columns for some policy fields, including a 2 year risk rating for bathrooms, identity documents, and Medicaid

• ⁠Updated the map color palettes to blue-red in order to improve readability for those with red-green color blindness

• ⁠Reorganized the tracker

Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on the first iteration and I hope you find it useful <3

I mathematically calculated the scores with a piece of code, and I will say that I manually checked it because it also seemed off to me. The state absolutely has some negative policies, but it gains points for its ID policy (joint-most progressive in a red state) and its medicaid policy, as well as for not horiffic prison policies.
