She also has a unique perspective on Virginia's current Governor, Bob "Taliban Bob" McDonnell as his former brother-in-law before divorcing Maureen McDonnell's younger sister and transitioning.
I welcome her decision to become more involved in advocacy for LGBT equality in Virginia and nationally. Some question her motives for speaking out, but having talked with her at length, her heart seems to be in the right place.
