But seriously though, If you're planning on sitting around and waiting for Democrats to show up and come to bat for trans folks, you're going to be waiting a long time.

Talk is cheap and principles are for campaign promises only. When it comes to taking action, politicians follow the sentiments of their constituencies. If we want the law to change, we need to change peoples minds about us.
