This is somewhat encouraging news, especially given the high number of conservative religious folks in the state. The guts of this very short article:
-89.3% of Louisiana residents agree that nobody should be fired from their job just because they are gay or transgender,
-93.7% of Louisiana residents believe that nobody should be evicted from their home or denied housing because they are gay or transgender, and
-89.5% of Louisiana residents believe that schools should protect gay and transgender students from bullying and harassment.
The support extends across all sorts of traditional dividing lines – Republicans and Democrats, young people and old, north Louisiana and south all agree that LGBT people deserve fair treatment in these aspects of life.
This is good news. How are things in transacity?
Things in Transas City are great, and we are going to be hosting two major trans* conferences here, one in February and one in March. More details will be posted this weekend.
