Senator Andrew McDonald, D-Stamford, said not including gender identity, which includes transgender, transsexual, and other individuals who do not identify with their biological sex, in the platform was an "unfortunate oversight." He said the issue hasn't reached a level of prominence in the broader community, but once people understand the issue "they tend to want to remedy it." He said he would take the issue up with party leadership.
