Christ. I didn't expect things to get this scary this fast. As someone getting care under an ACA plan this becoming the New Thing In Congress is terrifying.
These kinds of things are pretty typical in budget negotiations and very rarely make it into the final bill. Republicans throw in a bunch of stupid bullshit, they agree to remove most of it in exchange for actually passing a budget, and they get a few nominal wins to take back home to their constituents.
I'd be very surprised if anything super significant makes it into the final bill. Even Republican voters themselves barely care about trans issues.
