Trans lesbian mom of 2, joining exodus from poisoned Twitter to start anew.
Happy Transgender Day of Visibility!! If you hate today, you’ve never sat down and actually talked to a trans man or trans woman…. And it shows. To be human is to continually grow and evolve, in emotional connection and mental health. To my trans and non binary siblings, you are seen, you are loved,

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

Make no mistake: I'm in the Montana House because I believe that's where I can do the most good.
States are THE front line. They are where heinous policies are first tested & fought against. And when the federal gov't goes rogue, state legislatures are a critical line of defense for our communities

One thing that really bugs me about so many of the anti-trans arguments about sports is that they'll be like, "Lia Thomas was a giant! Clearly she had an unfair advantage!" when the reality was just that she was pretty much the same size as other elite women swimmers.

This year, many stood beside her and defeated four anti-trans bills.

The tide is shifting. Republicans are beginning to recognize that the attacks on trans people need to stop.
They do nothing but demean people & distract from the work government should be focused on—improving the lives of all who call this country home.

Last week, Republicans voted to gut Medicaid and take away healthcare from 8-year-old kids like William.
Don’t let them lie to you. This is what they voted for.
But we still have a chance to stop it.

1. The far right is falsely spreading that a new study shows that surgery "doubles depression" for transgender people.
This is an egregious misreading of the study, which does not look at transgender people before and after surgery.

New: Last month, a group of moderate Democratic consultants, campaign staffers, elected officials & party leaders gathered in Loudoun County, Virginia, for a retreat where they plotted their party’s comeback.
