We’re proud to endorse the Equality Act and demand equal protection under the law for ALL.

“Trans youth deserve to be protected by their governments, they shouldn’t have to be protected from their governments.” - @transequality.bsky.social’s Olivia Hunt
Rep. Pocan on Bluesky: “As Co-Chair of @equality.house.gov, I’m excited to help reintroduce the #EqualityAct this Congress! It's time federal civil rights laws explicitly prohibit anti-LGBTQI+ discrimination. It's time for the Equality Act to become law!”

Tomorrow as you are participating in May Day events, remember to support the Southern Workers Assembly rideshare and delivery drivers as they go on strike. They call for all community members and allies to pledge to boycott transportation and delivery gig corporations in solidarity. Spread the word!

From my latest piece.

The true motivating energy behind the anti-trans activists of today.
Ultimately, Freeman’s column isn’t pitiful because it rubs salt in the wound—it’s pitiful because it lays bare the true aim of the anti-trans movement. This was never about policy or bathrooms or youth sports. It’s about a cohort of people who feel culture shifting beneath their feet, who were raised in a world where casual cruelty toward transgender people was normalized, and who now find themselves resentful that society has moved on. Rather than reflect or grow, they double down, demanding that their revulsion be seen as virtue—that their discomfort be not only accepted but celebrated. Freeman’s yearning for social validation, cloaked in the language of righteous indignation, reveals the movement’s hollow core. The title of her piece says it all: this isn’t about the law, it’s about the isolation that comes from being wrong. And no court decision—no matter how cruel—will win back the friendships lost to hate, or rescue those who chose the wrong side of history from the consequences of that choice.

Alright y'all, let's chat about the strike card again. We DO NOT want your name on a central list. Absolutely not. What we have right now is set up based on our capacity. The goal is a fully decentralized strike card.
