Kansas, Texas, Iowa again.

Who voted for and against in a Mississippi bill that treats incarcerated trans women like men:

The information I can find has Dems split on the issue, whereas Rs are staunchly anti-trans.

Not trying to argue, just trying to understand. It's a shituation either way. Wish there were more progressive candidates in Iowa.

    A minority of Democrats seem genuinely pro-trans (and only in places where that is popular), while the majority either doesn't care or is transphobic. All Republicans are transphobic because they know it'd never be popular with their voter-base.

    I don't think most politicians are genuine about anything. But from the information that is gatherable, a majority of dems support trans rights.

    support trans rights

    Okay, though, how so? Do they support just not passing reactionary laws or do they support improving things, because the status quo in the US is that trans people already are dying. I know several.
