White House Backs Social Security Admin.'s Pro-Trans Policy

    Hey All
    I got this from a friend and I feel the more this information is spread among members of our community the better.
    The Social Security Administration has stopped issuing "gender no-match" letters to employers, which alert them when gender marker on an employee's W-2 does not match his or her Social Security Records.

    Here is link to story:

    Looks like maybe one more small good thing for our community in the US. Still have to fear being outed by old employers but fear of the Social Security letter outing us is gone.

    Thanks for reading and passing this on to any friends
