Transgender Day of Remembrance, Week of Awareness

November 22, 2022 — We stand with millions of people in America who identify as transgender, gender non-binary, or intersex, and call for all such people to be treated with the respect and dignity everyone deserves. Transgender people are our beloved members, family members and friends, and our valued flying partners. What harms transgender people harms us. AFA calls for respect and transparency in policy-making, and for equality under the law for transgender people.
