Hi friend,

In case you missed it, Montana lawmakers recently rejected a discriminatory measure that sought to bar state Rep. Zooey Zephyr, Montana’s first openly transgender legislator, from using the women’s restroom in the state Capitol. This bipartisan decision—where four Republicans joined Democrats in opposing the proposal—sends a powerful message of inclusion and fairness.

By standing against this divisive measure, Montana’s House Rules Committee upheld the values of equality and respect, ensuring the legislature remains focused on meaningful work for the people rather than political distractions.

Sign our petition to thank the lawmakers who stood up for fairness and rejected discrimination, reaffirming their commitment to a more inclusive democracy.

Let’s celebrate this important step toward dignity and respect for all.

In solidarity,

Emily from The Smile
