The Bureau of Prisons is subjecting trans people to conversion therapy and denying them care with the goal of helping them "recover." It's trying to prove dangerous conversion practices can work.

I had to verify this one for myself... It's true.

Why not link to the .gov domain though?

"The Bureau will not provide social accommodations, including to inmates diagnosed with GD, and the inmate will not receive social accommodations. If the inmate currently has social accommodations, the Bureau shall no longer provide the social accommodations"

So all bets are off and it is time to ignore the Prison Rape Elimination Act.
