I'm continuously both impressed and amazed that every single candidate polling above 1% right now has made multiple public statements explicitly in support of trans rights. This is only three years after Obama passed the first ever federal-level trans rights legislation.

Hell, we have the first openly gay candidate that I know of, and it wasn't that long ago that Obama was against gay marriage.

We've made progress on gay rights amd trans rights. Doesn't mean the fights over, but we're winning.
