“What to know
Democrats are intensifying efforts to support transgender rights ahead of the midterms.
The goal is to increase visibility of transgender individuals over the next decade.
Democrats believe these attack ads will backfire as public support for transgender rights grows.”
“Democrats are doubling down on their fight to convince Americans that their transgender policies should return.
The plan is to hammer home stories of transgender teens suffering discrimination and humiliation, gaining sympathy from voters and making a liability out of the expected onslaught of GOP ads attacking Democrats’ transgender policies.”
The article describes the plan presented to caucus.
It finishes with:
”Democrats said such attack ads will backfire on Republicans as Americans increasingly embrace transgender rights, the same way Democrats brought voters to their side on gay marriage.
It won’t be an easy battle for LGBTQ advocates.
Various polls show most Americans are against male-born athletes competing in female sports, with voters saying doctors should not perform transgender surgery on minors, and that transgender people should use bathrooms assigned to their biological sex.”
