The fuck is Arizona doing on that map?
Low-Risk States (AZ, DE, ME, MI, NV, PA, RI, VA, WI): These states have largely refrained from targeting transgender adults, although they haven't taken extraordinary steps to protect adult transgender rights either. For example, Arizona and Virginia have enacted anti-trans policies affecting youth but, due to state-specific factors, appear unlikely to extend such policies to adults.
They passed a constitutional amendment in 2008 barring gay marriage. While more recently they are considered a swing state for the presidency it is still not a safe place for LGBTQ+. Heck, their supreme courts recent ruling against abortion access and the other right wing tendencies in the legislature should show that they are not a friend to any community.
