2016 WA Governor's race: on Civil Rights


Bill Bryant: Supports repeal of right to transgender bathroom choice

Bill Bryant moved late last fall to a series of informal, drop-by "Beers with Bill" events at brew pubs in Western Washington population centers. (The Inslee campaign keeps its fundraising events pricey and private.) Bryant is being pulled to the right. He sent the right-wing Family Policy Institute of Washington a statement supporting repeal of a state Human Rights Commission policy which gives transgender persons the right to use their bathroom of choice.
