November 18, 2021, Perry, Georgia, USA: Houston County Sheriff Dept. investigator Anna Lange is thankful for the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance Nov. 20. Lange, 49, struggled with her gender identity for decades, and admitted to herself who she truly was. She had been promoted to the rank of Sergeant and is well-respected by her peers, who admitted they had never met a transgender person before. She began her transition in 2018 and the countyÕs insurance had approved her gender confirmation surgery, but then declined to pay for it, citing a policy exclusion. Lange sued, the her case is expected to be resoled in a few months. .Ã’The county has spent almost $600, 000 fighting this case which is twenty times more than what my healthcare would cost. This is one of the many reasons Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) is important to me. The purpose of this day is to remember those who have lost their lives for simply being who they are. ItÕs also a day to spread awareness of the struggle Transgender people still face. Across this nation and around the world, anti transgender laws and policies are still being brought forth at an alarming rate. It is frustrating because Transgender people are viewed and treated as a political pawns instead of just people. I work, I am parent, and I want to live life and be happy just like every other American citizen. I want to live life without fear of being physically harmed and I shouldnÕt be targeted and alienated by those that govern. 15 years ago, I never believed I could transition while being an active member of the law enforcement community, yet here I am. I owe that to the thousands of Transgender people who came before me, as well as those individuals who have lost their lives, Ó she said..Pictured: (Credit Image: © Robin Rayne/ZUMA Press Wire)
