State Sen. Megan Hunt is relaying a message from a mom of a trans high school student at Omaha Central: His poem is “I need them to treat it like it is.” I am waiting for it to be my turn to crash.

🚨 UPDATES🚨 SUPPORTERS: WE NEED YOU!
The finalization of our contract has been stalled AND 2 staff members have been terminated w/o warning. 1 of these staff members was not only the head of the bargaining unit, but was on medical leave recovering from gender-affirming surgery.
