This nation's darkest days have always come when our government deemed civil rights conditional. @realDonaldTrump’s ongoing assault on transgender Americans betrays our most fundamental responsibility to treat and see each other as human. #WontBeErased (1/2)
Replying to @LaurakBuzz
The Trump administration believe that to protect trans rights is to “wrongfully extend civil rights protects to people who should not have them”.

Today we raise our voices against an Administration that continues to cower to the forces of hatred and bigotry, and we tell every single transgender American that the rest of this country stands by their side. #WontBeErased (2/2)
