Trans and Allies for Obama!

Stonewall Democrats has launched a great way to give to Obama, and build some political power for the transgender community as well.

Stonewall has launched a Trans for Obama fundraising page on ActBlue. This is a great way to increase trans visibility, so when the election is over, we can point to exact dollars that the trans community and its allies brought in.

That. Is. Huge.

Whether you identify as trans or a trans ally, this is a win-win. You get to help make sure that we're not all crying in our beers the day after election day, and help demonstrate the power of the trans community and its supporters--all at the same time!

Giving money to Obama, especially through this page, is also great way to kill time while you're waiting for the SD Supreme Court decision on Jaba the Hunt's sketchy donor hiding. Whether you can give $250, $100, $50, $25 or even $10, make sure you give something. Right. Now.

Thanks for the post on this! We're up to 210 contributors and we're going for 261--that'd be more than Obama for America and Wes Clark! Shoot, we might even try to beat the classical musicians. :)

Bigger than the classical musicians? Don't go getting too big for your britches, now, Jon...
