    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.

    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.

    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.
