![]() Something that you said stuck with me, you said if you come for one of us, you come for all of us. VELSHI: Representative Jones, thank you and welcome to the show. The violence is escalating, and these policies create the conditions of that violence in our state, and the legislators that are trying to pass them, when people stand up in defense of our communities, they’re not okay with just passing it, they want to silence us. ZOOEY ZEPHYR (MONTANA STATE REPRESENTATIVE): That's exactly right, I gave the example of the suicide in my speech, but we’ve also had people attacked and public, run over by vehicles in Montana. ![]() You have said that what these laws do, is that they can end up in people’s deaths - whether it's suicides, because people live in a society that others them, and tells and that they not welcome, they're scary, and they're a threat or because this entrenches hate against trans people. ![]() Your speeches, including your speech today, you have taken what they accused you of doing, breaching decorum, and you have put that up against death, literally. ![]() Representative Zephyr, let me please start with you. I'm honored to have you all here, thank you for being with us. ALI VELSHI (HOST): Joining us now is the Democratic State Representative Zooey Zephyr of Montana, Democratic U.S Congressman Maxwell Frost of Florida, and Democratic state Representative Justin Jones of Tennessee. ![]()
