This Administration is feeding the public a steady stream of lies, misinformation, and fearmongering, and tonight’s State of the Union was more of the same.   

We are disappointed and concerned about the infighting and divisiveness that continues to engulf the Women’s March, Inc. Racism, including accusations of antisemitism against the March’s leaders of color, and racially charged efforts to discredit these same leaders plague January 19th’s fight for gender equity and threaten to further tear apart a movement founded on the principles of unity and inclusion.

We call on this administration to examine its part in the events of this past week and to make amends. We stand in solidarity with communities all across the globe that find themselves marginalized and "othered."

This Administration’s unceasing attacks on transgender young people are heartless and disgusting, and we will not tolerate them. Transgender young people deserve to be celebrated for who they are.
