• Fighting for Care (progressive.org) — Families from Missouri are now driving to a Fairview Heights clinic for gender-affirming care after their home state banned treatment for minors, making the city a crucial access point. The story follows one St. Louis family and several providers nationwide as they navigate new state bans, federal pressure under Trump’s second term, and hospitals that are scaling back or halting care even where it remains legal.
