This leftinsfer hopes you have a great time tonight whatever you are doing. Be safe and keep dry.
A few of My New Year’s Resolutions:
1) State legislation on the trans panic theory. Currently, anyone can try and reduce their culpability for murder by arguing that they “panicked” when they found out their sexual partner was trans. Allowing this to continue is like putting a huge target on the backs of transgender women. For some reason, men are more likely to kill their sexual partner than women when they “find” out their sexual partner is transgender, or at least I haven’t heard of any women ever killing their partner. They may freak out maybe, but no murders that I have heard about…
2) Take out Schwarzenegger. Since I spent most of last year trying to make this happen, this is an on-going resolution. Last year went well and I have high hopes.

3) Get a good contract for Local 790 members through a strong grassroots member-led campaign that educates the public about the value of what city workers do and the issues they face.
4) And on a personal note, continue to try and get in better shape. The “t” helps a little with the muscle stuff. Totally unfair but true.
