Alabama Elects First Transgender Legislator In Its House
Democrat Allison Montgomery has become the first transgender legislator to win a seat in the Alabama House, defeating the Republican incumbent.
“I know the headlines tomorrow are gonna be provocative and catchy, but let’s focus on the most important part of this victory: we showed that a truly grassroots campaign that stands on its policies and its principles has a real shot in Alabama,” Montgomery wrote Tuesday on Instagram. “We the people are tired of attempts to distract us with culture war issues, whether we’re in a minority group or not. We the people know corporate interests use these issues to pit us against one another while they pick our pockets.”
