Why Congress is creating a transgender task force

CSMonitor/By Story Hinckley, Staff  November 18, 2015   

"The Congressional LGBT Equality Caucus announced a new congressional task force Tuesday, dedicated to transgender equality.

While this has been a historic year for LGBT rights, with the legalization of gay marriage across the US, transgender advocates such as LGBT Equality Caucus Co-Chair Rep. Jared Polis (D) of Colorado say transgender people are often left out of larger acceptance campaigns."

I'm glad they're doing this. I hope something will come of it, but fear it will not. I think we still have a very long way to go.
April 22, 2015, the day of my first face to face pass in gender neutral clothes and no makeup. It may be months to the next one, but I'm good with that!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

They say the light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train. I say, climb aboard!
