Listen Later

Over here at Today in Gay we are always learning along with you and it was so enlightening to learn a little bit more about the legislative process in Puerto Rico with the first out trans person to hold an elected office in the island’s history, Marielle De León Toledo!

Vico and Marielle go way back to 2019, after meeting and dancing at a Drag show in Puerto Rico. I don’t know about you, but I want my politicians to be able to Kiki. De León Toledo can do that, and so much more!

To learn more about Marielle and view the links mentioned on the pod, check out our Substack write-up for this episode!
