Some would say you've done enough for LGBT Americans, more than any president ever has before, and it's unfair to be critical or expect more from you and your administration. I would respectfully disagree.

Once those new executive orders are put into effect, you'll have done about as much for LGBT Americans without the support of Congress as we could have reasonably hoped for, perhaps even more.

There's another issue, though, Mr. President, and it's the one that makes some transgender folks like me want to rip our hair out every time we've seen you make a speech, issue a statement, or otherwise acknowledge same-sex marriage and gay married couples but not our jobs, workplace rights, or transgender people.
