The following resolution was passed by the CPUSA National Board and submitted for party-wide discussion. The demonization of transgender people in the United States is today a focal point of the far right’s campaign for political and economic domination.

Glad that the party has improved on this. It wasn’t always so. During the 60s, 70s, and 80s, it either said little of LGBTQ struggle or allowed homophobic opinions; this was due to a misunderstanding that communist parties had about Marxism and gay and trans folks. Also, during the tail end of the 1980s, just things started to go away but it was too late…

Sadly, some communist parties are lax on this question (I won’t name names though).
