So the pretty darn surprising news out this week, courtesy of the Public Religion Research Institute, is:

    89% percent of Americans (including strong majorities of all religious and partisan groups) think transgender people deserve the same rights and protections as other Americans.
    75% of Americans agree that Congress should pass laws to protect transgender people from job discrimination.
