Two Trans Women Make Political History

In November, two transgender women will run for Congress as Democrats. In Utah, 30-year-old grocery store clerk Misty Snow, who worked her shifts while campaigning, will run for a Senate seat against incumbent Tea Party Republican Mike Lee, who has served in his position since 2011. In 2013, he voted against the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which would have worked to stop LGBT discrimination from continuing in the workplace.
