Sarah,With all due respect, I believe that you should fight that rule for all transfolk in the nation. This compliance reflects poorly to us across the nation, and suggests that we should all comply if the federal government issues a ban on bathroom access on trans people across the nation. You must hold the line, ma'am. For all of us, it's not just about sports, or health care access anymore, it's about setting the bar for all of us now. 1/?
I understand your duties are specifically for Delaware, but as a member of the Senate, you must understand how this reflects to the rest of us across the nation, terrified of what the Trump administration is inclined to do to all of us. Texas already has a bounty out for trans people using the bathrooms that fit their gender identity, imagine how this will look if other states are encouraged by your compliance to the Speakers rule. 2/?
Please, as a trans masc voters of Michigan, I'm begging you, hold the line, stand your ground.Yours in defiance of the status quo,Melrose "Melisa" M. Nolan 3/3
Decided to write a letter to the Democrat main offices as well. Yes, I am angry. 1/?
Sirs/Madames/Theys,
I think it's time to stand up and fight to protect the minority groups that are being mistreated, discriminated against, and abused by the republican party. It's time, that we voters see the fighting spirit of each and every democrat in office taking a stand to help, support, and defend Sen. Sarah McBride, and other LGBTQ members in office, not yesterday, not tomorrow, NOW. 2/?
As a transgender voter that has lost any hope for this nation becoming what it should be, undivided, inclusive, and a safe haven to those that call this country home, I feel very strongly that the lack of support, and protection that the democrat party has provided to the minority groups of this nation is the biggest failing in the last election. 3/?
I ask all of you, to please, do your research, speak to specialists in the field of gender sciences, and understand that this is not something that's just going to disappear overnight. We are here, we are fighting to survive because of the lack of representation and lack of support in office today.

Sarah McBride should not comply to the House Speaker's bathroom rule, this sends the message of discrimination being accepted in the Senate as well as other spaces of the government inner workings, band together, stand your ground with her, and support her, because this voter is begging you to do the right thing, fight for trans rights and equality because what Trump is bringing to the table, spells out to a second mass murder of all of us. 5/?
You are the party of common sense, of fairness, and of equality. It's time to show your fighting spirit and get into the fight, because the republican party isn't going to stop until the rivers run red with LGBTQ and women's, immigrant blood. You know this, I know this. Everyone with three brain cells knows this. Get off your chairs, and stand up with her, do not bow to fascism, because this is where it starts. 6/6
If anyone else wishes to write an email to Sarah in request to defy the rule, this is her gov. email. [email protected]
