“As I said to that state representative in Delaware who had admonished us for moving the trans equality bill too quickly, each time we ask anyone – whether they are transgender, Black, an immigrant, Muslim, Native American, gay, or a woman – to sit by and let an extended conversation take place about whether they deserve to be respected and affirmed in who they are, we are asking people to watch their own life pass by without dignity or fairness. That is too much to ask of anyone.”
