In the 2020 election cycle, OpenSecrets data revealed that pro-transgender groups spent $6.9 million supporting Democratic candidates, and $1.8 million of that sum was given to Joe Biden.

AbbVie manufactures Lupron, the puberty blocker most widely used on children in the early stages of transitioning.
