PROCLAMATION

As we solemnly declare November 20 as Transgender Remembrance Day, we honor, commemorate, and memorialize those who have lost their lives to anti-transgender violence and their loved ones.

As Colorado and the nation mourn yet another horrific attack targeting the LGBTQ community, today is a tragic reminder of the unacceptable violence, discrimination, and structural barriers that members of the LGBTQ community still face on a regular basis, despite our progress towards inclusion and equality.
