The situation has deteriorated for transgender youth around the country, with many clinics shuttering and state AGs unwilling to enforce law. For adults, some states see higher risk.

Does the map have a legend

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The legend is hard to read but says:

Anti-Trans Legal Risk

(deep clay red) 🟥 worst laws passed
(dark orange) 🟧 High Risk Within 2 Years
(light orange) 🔶 Moderate Risk Within 2 Years
(light blue) 🩵 Low Risk Within 2 Years
(dark blue) 💙 Safest States with Strong Protections
(dark red with diagonal lines) ❌ Do Not Travel

If you scroll down a bit there's a version with a legend

It used to in the past, but generally the deeper the reddish brown, all the way up to stripey black, the worse it is for trans people. The deeper the blue, the better. So the pale colors are basically the middle danger/safety ones.
