I think you are remarkably uninformed for a senior official and appear oblivious of the life saving nature of gender affirming care. Opposing GAC ic the equivalent to encouraging suicide by those in a very vulnerable community.

Circa 1994 – The mighty 1951 Fordson Major Diesel being skillfully handled by the equally mighty Renee Nied. We sure did some work back then, pulling trees out of the woodlot running a Cutditioner over hay fields, and growing everything from cantaloupes to carrots to kiwi!

Transgender rights are human rights. All people of good conscience must stand up for the rights of everyone to embrace their true gender identity and to be free of harassment and violence.

The US president just attacked a female bishop for saying Christian things in a Christian sermon, calling her a "so-called bishop", not "smart", and "not very good at her job."

And no one will blink an eye. It won't be a controversy or a big story. All normalized.

Welcome to the next 4 years.

Transgender trailblazer Sarah McBride heads to her debut in Congress, hoping for a touch of grace McBride's political ascension comes during a reckoning for transgender rights, when legislation in Republican-governed states around the country aims to curb their advance.
