John:

This week, we're celebrating Transgender Awareness Week! With all the anti-trans rhetoric being spewed and the harmful bills targeting trans people, we feel it's more important than ever to celebrate the recent victories of our trans candidates and the historic number of trans leaders that stepped up to run this cycle. After all, these amazing leaders are working tirelessly - today and everyday - so that everyone in our community is treated with dignity and respect.

Today, we're sending our endorsed candidates on the November ballot a big thank you for all of their hard work in the face of bigotry. Add your name to our card and let them know you're rooting for them!

Look, our current political climate is incredibly hostile to trans people, and state legislatures are breaking records for anti-trans legislation. These candidates made the choice to step up and run despite the hatred - they're incredibly brave.

That's why today, we're sending them a thank you card and honoring their historic victories and campaigns. We hope you'll add your name and let them know you're standing with them. Sign our card here!

Thanks for signing on,
