Support the Rights of Trans-gender Americans

Though the issues of trans-gender individuals competing in athletic competitions may present challenges as yet unresolved, let’s be clear; trans-gender individuals are real, not a fantasy or delusion, or a chosen lifestyle. Like all other LTGBQ individuals, they are human beings with the same rights as everyone else, and should be treated as such. Gender-affirming care is essential, and trans-gender military service should not be compromised. Trump’s executive order against trans-persons is a violation of human rights, and should be challenged and dismissed.
