Ariana Grande, Pedro Pascal and Christina Aguilera are among the stars who have signed a recent open letter protesting the US government’s plans to sever funding for a LGBTQ+ youth suicide prevention hotline.

According to a recently leaked proposed budget, as per NPR, US President Donald Trump‘s administration is considering defunding the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, which helps connects callers in a mental health crisis with specially trained counselors with similar life experiences.

The open letter, organised by LGBTQ+ youth charity The Trevor Project, calls on the government to protect the funding needed to maintain this essential and life-saving service.

Recent Attitude cover boy Benito Skinner, Paris Hilton, Sabrina Carpenter, Orville Peck and Jamie Lee Curtis are also among the signatories.
