John,
This election is likely the most important of our lifetimes, and we are not taking it lightly. We have to mobilize and use every resource at our hands to ensure that Joe Biden is the next President of the United States. Our lives and futures depend on it.
After three years of constant attacks from the Trump administration, we need to bring a champion for the American public, including transgender people, back to the White House. We need someone we know we can rely on to have our interests at heart.
We’ve already told you why we think Joe Biden is the person to do that, but we want you to hear it from him, in his own words.
Joe talks often about his beloved son Beau, who lost his battle to brain cancer in 2015, being his driving force for running for president this year. What many don’t know, though, is that Beau helped shape Joe’s stance on transgender issues. As Attorney General of Delaware, Beau Biden supported landmark legislation to add non-discrimination protections based on gender identity. Joe Biden credits Beau’s support of the transgender community as part of his journey to better understanding how leaders address the issues impacting marginalized communities like ours.
Joe Biden has made transgender people a promise: to protect every single right across the board, without exception. He knows that trans rights are human rights and that discrimination is morally wrong, politically wrong, and wrong for the country.
One of the greatest compliments Joe Biden can give you is to say that you are part of the Biden family. We believe in Joe, welcome him to our family, and look forward to working closely with his administration as he works to Transform the White House.
Sincerely,
Mara Keisling
