Democrats are currently ahead in 63 (!!!) races in the Virginia House of Delegates.

If this holds, it would be one of the largest state legislature swings in the last 4 years.

Its an absolute bloodbath for anti-trans Republicans.

Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals — Illinois Pride Connect.

As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

What do you call a newly out trans girl in her first relationship with a partner who actually sees her as desirable?

each other, and we mustn’t blame the victims of discrimination, and the prejudice the other side has wielded, as the cause of our electoral defeat. Those who do so are cowards who cannot see the forest from the trees.

We must stand united. No exceptions. We must stand with the trans community. /end

They hope that by targeting one group, the rest of us will cower. Such an environment gives an open invitation to fascism. It leads to discrimination, then segregation, then internment, and still worse.

A compassionate, good people would not permit this to happen. We will not be divided against /6

It is little known, but the first book burnings in Nazi Germany didn’t target Jewish writers. It was the burning of the library of the Institute of Sexual Research, which was a safe home for trans people.

It is no accident that fascists today walk that same dark path by targeting trans people. /5

A nation is be judged not by on how it exults its bullies and strongmen, but how it treats its most vulnerable. Like Japanese Americans, the trans community never did anything to deserve the kind of hatred and targeting they have received.

We have a moral obligation to stand by them now. /4

Worse still, those who should have stood by us when we became easy scapegoats fled or grew silent. And that led to an environment where the government could put us into camps.

It was the abandonment by our friends that stung the most.

And we can’t let that happen again. Not on our watch. /3

They stoked hatred and prejudice to score political points and show they were “doing something” in response to the attack.

I see the same thing happening today with the trans community. They are politically vulnerable and the subject of attack ads and bullying. It is shameful and wrong. /2

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
