I've been enjoying Tilly's Trans Tuesdays for a while - and this three-part series on terfery, Rowling, and the Potter-industrial complex is just outstanding. Read it yourself. Pass it on to your transphobic neighbor - and especially your "what's the harm?" coworker. It might change a few minds.

Let's go, Sam Forstag! That's how you stand up for trans people on the national stage. If congressional candidates in western Montana—one of the most competitive House races in the entire country—can stand up for trans folks in every aspect of our lives, democrats everywhere should take note.

Colorado & Michigan have become the latest blue states to end Medicaid coverage for trans youth. Solidly blue Colorado will also be IMMEDIATELY shutting off care for all trans kids receiving puberty blockers—despite Trump's rule allowing a 6 month ‘tapering’ period. This is a complete betrayal.

Democrats are getting the country closer to creating a filibuster proof majority to ban trans healthcare and sports for kids than the GOP ever could alone and they expect us to support them lol. reminder "surgeries" is a vague category that could easily include puberty blocker implants!

Compassion isn’t conditional. Justice isn’t a political calculus. We cannot claim to stand for 'all' if we reduce vulnerable children to a talking point for a headline. No hesitation, no apology: trans girls are girls. Reclaiming the Soul of the Party: youtu.be/1tvxBOCHo_E?...

I'm 100% confident that a Democrat saying, "yes I stand with trans rights because it's the right thing and I won't betray my morals. And even if polling says it's unpopular, I think people will care more about..." would do more to help them than any half assed attack on trans people.

This is why "stop yelling at the Dems until after midterms" was a psyop doomed to fail. Turns out, they don't like being yelled at, and it makes them stop doing the thing you're yelling at them for. And honestly that's the closest thing to democracy we have anymore.

Today, I resigned as Vice Chair of the ODP Pride Caucus. The state party expects us to be a sales team, censoring our voices when we beg candidates not to trade on trans lives. I am still a Democrat, but I will not value party approval over true, defiant advocacy. Full text below. 👇

Part 1 of an open letter of resignation by Arienne Childrey, stepping down as Vice Chair and member of the Ohio Democratic Party (ODP) Pride Caucus. She states that party leadership treats the caucus as a recruitment and sales team rather than a representative body. She cites an incident where the ODP censored and denied permission for the caucus to post a letter by two trans leaders addressing harmful comments made by Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton. The State Party Chair reportedly called the letter an "unwelcome distraction," which Childrey notes demonstrates how little party leadership values the voices and dignity of LGBTQ+ Democrats.

Since that decision, every Caucus plan, every potential post, and every path forward has been filtered through a lens of strict compliance and ODP approval. That may very well be the party's rule, but following those rules right now is a dereliction of our duty to the LGBTQ+ community.

For me, any rule that silences advocacy for the trans community during this time is an unjust rule, and I see no obligation to follow it. In alignment with the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his Letter from Birmingham Jail:

“One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.”

We are living in incredibly dangerous times for the trans community. We are in an era where the GOP has so thoroughly weaponized trans lives that even some formerly self-professing allies within our own party have fallen prey to the rhetoric. Looking at the national trend towards Democratic anti-trans triangulation, as well as our own internal conversations, it is clear to me that this shift is much more than a simple coincidence.

We have to speak up—loudly, strongly, and unapologetically—or I fear what our 2028 choices may look like. The ODP would like everyone to believe they are a "big tent" party. However, their successful efforts to silence even the Pride Caucus—even in cases where we are simply begging our candidates not to trade on our lives for perceived electoral advantage—has proven otherwise. The tent hasn't gotten any bigger; it has simply shifted, leaving many trans individuals, progressives, and allies out in the rain.

I will continue to advocate, organize, and fight for our community with everything I have. But I can no longer compromise my own moral principles by remaining part of a caucus that appears more interested in party approval than in true, defiant advocacy.

Sincerely,
Arienne Childrey

Yet another example of what we keep telling people. This isn't a coincidence. Party leaders are supporting anti-trans triangulation as a strategy. We either push back now, hold the party accountable of this will be the 2028 strategy. Trans lives and rights aren't a bargaining chip.
