Sarah McBride
Congresswoman Sarah McBride, a history-making Democrat from Delaware, was sworn in Friday afternoon as the first out transgender member of the U.S. House of Representatives, reports the The Advocate.
Representing Delaware’s At-Large Congressional District, McBride took the oath of office using her family’s childhood Bible, marking a moment she described as “surreal” and “awe-inspiring.”
In an interview with The Advocate on the eve of her swearing-in, McBride reflected on the historic moment and the long journey that brought her to this point. “This has been a long journey… I am feeling grateful to all those whose shoulders I’m standing on, all those who blazed the paths that have made tomorrow possible,” she said.
