Montana transgender lawmaker warns Capitol Hill bathroom ban won't stop in DC - Scripps News



Montana state Rep. Zooey Zephyr is weighing in on the controversial transgender bathroom ban on Capitol Hill.

In an interview with Scripps News, she said the "hate of transgender people is boundless."

She gave a nuanced answer when asked whether Rep.-elect Sarah McBride, the first transgender person elected to Congress, is caving by stating she would follow the rules at the Capitol even if she disagrees with them.

Don't think she in any way nuanced that McBride caved. She said that everyone has to choose their battles and hills to die on because when you are in private places, some people get violent. She gave McBride credit for reading the room and not letting the garbage land on her.

I wish great success for both of them, they have their heads in the right place for the work they have been elected to do. Others just want to make a wedge issue out of it.

For the Bible folks:::

Eve was the first transgender. Originally 100% male.

God was OK with it.
