Gretchen Whitmer defends unwavering support for trans rights
Original: Gretchen Whitmer to Democrats questioning their support for trans rights: ‘I’ve never wavered’
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer pushed back against Democrats who have begun questioning the party's support for transgender rights, telling them plainly that she has 'never wavered' on the issue. Her comments put her at odds with voices in the party calling for a softer line, and position her as a firm defender of trans rights ahead of the next election cycle.
Why now: Some Democrats are publicly reconsidering the party's stance on trans rights, and Whitmer's firm rejection of that shift has sparked debate within the party.
