If you are trans and want to get involved in politics, let me know and I will set up a time to chat with you about the process and how to take those first steps.

Since our governor here in CA has signaled his willingness to compromise with the right wing on trans issues, I’m feeling like I should be thinking about getting involved. I’d love to chat. Thanks for fighting for us in Montana!
With everything going on this year, I've been contemplating about how I can make a difference! Would love to have some help! Currently living in Seattle, WA, but have considered moving back to northern VA, especially if that'll help me make more of a difference politically!
I have a bachelor's and a master's in polisci, but have been too scared to get involved. But now is the time. Any advice would be useful. I'm in Minnesota.
I’m an 18 year old transfem and I dream of getting involved in politics one day, starting in college(which I will be beginning this fall). You’re a huge role model for me and I’d love to learn more about how to get involved!
This is an incredible opportunity to learn from a trans leader - thank you, @zoandbehold.bsky.social - and if folks are interested in additional opportunities to engage in trans leadership development, we're here to help at https://ntlcc.org 💙
I'm interested in advice on what I can do as a (poor) trans American living outside the US. I help people best I can here in this country, but I wonder what I can do to help things in the US beyond just voting, donating (have no money lol), and social media. Any ideas?
Writing letter and postcards to voters! You don't want to try to swing postage from abroad, but you could write them out and send to someone who mails them out?
Maybe check with Democrats Abroad. They do a lot of organizing work.
The difference with Rep. Howell, is that he has gotten to know "you". Your representation of the trans community is vitally important. The qualities that Rep Howell sees in you. I'd also, what he sees in us 🏳️⚧️.
Rhode Islander here. In spite of the state being safe for transgender people, we have no representatives at the state level and our federal people don't give us the time of day.
I've flirted with the idea of entering politics for a long time and would love to know how to get started.
This is the way!! The more visible we are, the more we become just regular people. And that makes it soo much harder to demonize and dehumanize us!
BTW, Awesome job Rep. Zephyr!!!!
I've thought about it before but I have too much PTSD I think. I do better without the pressure of the spotlight. Some kind of strategist or rapid response type person? Maybe
I fit that description, but more interested in working in the data side than public office (have a data science & survey methods degree), if you're able to help out with connecting along those lines would love a chat

But yeah, maybe one day not that. Even just a written primer would be awesome. :)
And thank you so much. Your speech was amazing and effective.
Hugs to you and your family.
