What are these? Are they from an informational site I can direct to?

I have another comment on this post which may be helpful for you. TLDR Biden's Admin had tried to protect trans people under the ADA via executive agency. Likely outcome is that will be reversed but the ADA (and similar or related protections) & IMO will not see broader impacts. This is because the law that passed Congress and was sign by the president specifically didn't include trans people when it was signed (along with a number of other peoples most trans people would be offended to be grouped with).

Tldr tldr: this likely stops trans people from being in the ADA's protection.

Not what I was asking, sorry, though thank you for the info. Did you make these info graphics?
