Missing Jill Biden, who used her Second Lady role to advocate for safe schools for LGBTQ students

Karen Pence is teaching at a school that bans gay employees and kids. Really makes you miss Dr. Jill Biden, also an educator, who used her Second Lady role to advocate for safe schools for LGBTQ students.

...video from a speech given by Dr. Jill Biden at the GLSEN Respect awards. In this video she boldly calls out bullying and harassment against LGBTQ students and commits the Obama-Biden White House to protecting LGBTQ students in their schools.



Dr. Jill Biden spoke at 2017 GLSEN Respect Awards – New York gala, making the case that all students deserve to be safe in school, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression.
