When I flew to Washington, D.C., on Saturday, April 13, to participate in the National Center for Transgender Equality's annual lobbying day, it was the first time I had participated in a lobbying effort — well, at least in person. I have frequently contacted various officials via e-mail. This was also my first time in Washington, which alone was a great experience.
