纽约市长竞选网站曾承诺拨款6500万美元用于全市公立医院和诊所的性别确认护理服务

在周二晚间的骄傲月庆祝活动中，纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼宣传了其政府为扩大LGBTQ+群体服务所做的工作，称纽约市是拥有不同性别认同人群的“避风港”。
曼达尼尤其重申了为跨性别群体提供1500万美元资金的承诺。
“威胁会持续存在，我们对全市跨性别群体的不懈保护也会如此，”曼达尼在谈及他所说的LGBTQ+群体面临的挑战时表示。
“作为第一步，我的政府已在未来两年内为性别确认护理投入1500万美元，我们将继续动用所有可用手段，确保每一位跨性别和性别非符合纽约人都能过上他们应得的、有尊严、安全且自由的生活。”

曼达尼的此番讲话借鉴了其他城市的类似举措，并有望兑现其在竞选市长期间做出的承诺。
目前尚不清楚这1500万美元申请的具体拨款来源，也不清楚将如何发放——纽约市议会目前仍在审议2027财年预算，但这笔投资将由纳税人承担费用。
旧金山也推进了由进步派主导的跨性别补贴计划。
和纽约一样，旧金山设立了跨性别倡议办公室，并通过公共卫生部为激素治疗、手术和心理健康案例管理提供指导资金。

如果付诸实施，曼达尼的这项倡议将更进一步，直接为相关手术提供资金。
尽管在市级跨性别服务项目上已有所突破，但纽约市的这笔拨款仍未达到曼达尼在竞选期间描绘的愿景。
“曼达尼政府将拨款6500万美元，明确支持并扩大纽约市的性别确认护理（GAC）服务获取渠道，”曼达尼的竞选网站曾写道。
该计划详细说明，最高5700万美元将用于可开展相关手术的公立医院、社区诊所、医疗中心和非营利组织。
尽管曼达尼关于1500万美元的计划细节仍不明确，但他表示，他对LGBTQ+群体的支持已得到证明，且只会不断加强。

“作为市长，我很自豪在就职首百天内就设立了纽约市首个LGBTQIA+事务办公室，”曼达尼说。
“这个办公室专注于纽约酷儿群体的福祉，让你们知道在市政府内部有一位支持者和倡导者。”

Mamdani touts massive taxpayer-funded investment for trans healthcare: ‘First step’

As part of the Pride Month celebration on Tuesday evening, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani touted the work his administration has done to expand services for LGBTQ+ communities, calling New York City a “haven” for people with alternative gender identities.
In particular, Mamdani doubled down on promises of $15 million in funding for trans communities.
“The threats will continue and so will our relentless protection of trans people across this city,” Mamdani said, referring to challenges he said LGBTQ+ communities face.
“As a first step, my administration has made a $15 million investment in gender-affirming care over the next two years, and we will continue to use every tool at our disposal to make sure every trans and gender non-conforming New Yorker can live with the dignity, safety and freedom they deserve.”

Mamdani’s speech builds on similar efforts in other cities and looks to follow through on campaign promises Mamdani made on the road to his mayoral victory.
It’s unclear where, exactly, the $15 million request is being allocated from or how it will be disbursed as New York City Council members continue consideration of the 2027 budget, but taxpayer dollars will be on the hook for the investment.
Progressive-led subsidized transgender initiatives have also advanced in San Francisco.
Like New York, San Francisco established an Office of Transgender Initiatives and, through its Department of Public Health, has funded guidance for hormone therapy, surgery and mental health case management.

If implemented, Mamdani’s initiative would go further, directly funding procedures.
Despite pushing the envelope on city-led programs for trans services, the New York funding falls short of the vision Mamdani painted while on the campaign trail.
“The Mamdani administration will budget $65 million in funding to explicitly support and expand access to Gender Affirming Care (GAC) in NYC,” Mamdani’s campaign website read.
That plan detailed that up to $57 million would go to public hospitals, community clinics, health centers and nonprofits that could perform procedures.
Although Mamdani’s plan for the $15 million remains hazy, he said his support of the LGBTQ community was proven — and would only grow.

“As your mayor, I was proud to establish New York City’s first-ever office of LGBTQIA+ affairs within the first 100 days of our administration,” Mamdani said.
“This office focuses on the well-being of queer New Yorkers so that you know you have a champion and advocate within city government.”
