Political Quotes

“Today, Donald Trump announced via Twitter, how else, that he is going to reverse the Obama-era decision and deny transgender people the right to openly serve in our military. I think it is shameful to divide Americans, in the face of their service and sacrifice, for his political gain. This is not about national security, it is not about saving money, and it is not about fabricated claims of disruption. What is disruptive is discrimination against an entire class of Americans who are or who want to protect and defend America. That is the same argument that was used against women in the service, against gays and lesbians. We ought to welcome any American who is qualified and willing to serve to protect our great country, to protect America and our values, even as the President undermines both. ____________________”
