Simmons, a queer Black woman and labor organizer from Houston, watched her Democratic state representative break with her party and vote in favor of three Republican-led bills limiting rights for transgender teens and children. All of them became law.
That is some badass hair!
For a badass woman!
Good, vote out people who vote for bad things. And good for her for stepping up and taking on the fight for what is right.
Oh “challenged” as in attempted to actually accomplish something and did. Nice. I’m too used to headlines using energetic verbs when the reality is that one party Twote at another.
When discussing politicians, “challenged” almost always means “ran against them in a campaign”.
Good. I’m sick of Democrats being filled with left, center, and center right.

There is some hope out there. I hope more of this continues, getting rid of bad actor Dems instead of blind support due to (D) would go a long way.
