This is pretty much a straight-up lie.
What most people will understand by “criminalizing life saving health care” is that people are being denied medicines or surgeries or both to treat life-threatening illnesses. What the ACLU of course means by “life saving health care” is surgeries and/or cross-sex hormones to create an artificial resemblance to the opposite sex. The latter is, obviously, not life-saving in any ordinary sense. The underlying idea is that without help in trying to change sex, trans people will kill themselves. That’s not what “life-saving” means.
Think of a scenario in which a man threatens to kill a woman if she won’t have sex with him. Would the ACLU whine at the recalcitrant woman that she should provide the life saving fuck the man insists he needs?
The ACLU needs to stop trying to blackmail us all into promoting cross-sex hormones for people who want to pretend to “change their sex.”

At this point, given their demonstrated contempt for women around the whole sports issue, among others, I wouldn’t be surprised if they did.
Do you mean that the man threatens himself?
‘Life saving health care’ *could* mean abortions.
However, they should say that explicitly if that was what they meant.
Hmm. I don’t think it could mean that in the context of “LGBTQ people are being targeted.”
