"Most surprising, in some ways, is that an overwhelming number of people surveyed (almost 80 percent) also endorse transgender protection from discrimination. "

It's getting better

The survey was conducted by the Human Rights Commision.

It's interesting that the HRC says politicians are out of touch when they (HRC)endorsed a version of ENDA that didn't include Trans protection because that's how to get the bill passed. So what's right doesn't matter? It's getting things done in their own best interest? Since the vast majority of HRC is G&L and pushing for their issues, they didnt care about advocating for us until the fall out from that event. But Politicians don't get it? Riiiiiiight.

Agreed, we seem to be on our own when it comes to getting our rights.

We are not any closer than we were before. We are just more newsworthy now.
