You know, it's funny because sometimes there's discourse that, like, the only reason why I'm an elected official is because I'm trans.
Like, I see on the right this notion that I'm, you know, a diversity hire.
I was like, well...
voters chose me.
It's kind of an insult to voters that they didn't choose me because they think that I'm the best qualified or best candidate or reflective of what they want, but they just chose me because of my identity.
But it also just undersells such a larger truth, which is that
My life would be so much easier if I wasn't trans.
Now, I'm proud of who I am.
I'm proud that this is my life experience for a whole host of reasons.
But this is all a lot harder because I'm trans.
Are there moments where I get a microphone or, you know, am I sitting here, right?
If I was a non-trans freshman Democrat, would I be sitting here?
Maybe not.
Maybe I would.
Maybe not.
We probably would be having a different conversation.
But navigating this world as a trans person has always been, and even more so now, it's incredibly hard.
And all any of us are asking, or at least all that most of us are asking,
is to just let us live the best life we can, a life with as few regrets as possible, a life where we can be constructive, productive, contributing members of society.
You might not understand us.
