"A Republican congresswoman has launched a new campaign – 'Family Is Everything' – encouraging parents to support their trans children.
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen stars in the advert alongside her husband, Dexter, and their trans son, Rodrigo in a campaign aimed at improving trans rights.
"We loved him as Amanda, and now as Rodrigo. At first, we had a lot of questions, but as parents we love and support our children," she says in the ad."
