Our NYC LGBTQIA+ community is deserving of exactly this! A dedicated office, led by a dedicated civil rights advocate, the first trans person to lead a city office 🏳️‍⚧️ So proud of the work we did during the transition to make this happen, grateful to @mayor.nyc.gov's commitment to our community ❤️

MLK Jr. only "put partisan politics aside" in the sense that he was willing to criticize northern Democrats who supported de facto segregation as well as southern Republicans who backed Jim Crow. That's not the same as being willing to work with Republicans. In fact, it's the exact opposite.
