President Trump wants to drive trans people out of public life, but we will always be true to ourselves—not who he wants us to be.

Yesterday, ICE raided a car wash in Hamden, targeting and detaining several people. This disruption was an unacceptable act of cruelty and recklessness. All people in Connecticut deserve to move through our communities knowing that they can do safely and with dignity.
