On Sunday afternoon, February 26, several hundred demonstrators gathered in Niagara Square to express support for civil rights for members of the transgender community, and to register opposition to the Trump administration’s decision to rescind guidelines to states regarding the enforcement of federal Equal Protection guarantees. Speakers at the demonstration, which was spearheaded by Stonewall Democrats on Western New York, included Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul, Congressman Brian Higgins, and Assemblyman Sean Ryan.
