Members of the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition (MTPC) and family members of those who have been murdered for being transgender gathered at the Massachusetts State House on Nov. 17 to witness a proclamation given in support of this week’s upcoming Transgender Day of Remembrance by the House of Representatives.
Rep. Carl Sciortino (D) offered introductions at the meeting that aimed to “honor the celebrations and awareness happening this week” and showcase the “very real stories of struggle and pain and mourning.”
