Monday is LGBTQ Lobby Day at the state Capitol, and you can bet transgender rights will be a topic of conversations between advocates and lawmakers. President Trump on Wednesday removed federal protections that allow transgender students to choose the restroom or locker room to match their gender identity. Transgender rights are the year's major issue for One Colorado, the state's largest advocacy organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer Coloradans and their families. One Colorado organizes LGBTQ Lobby Day, which starts at 8:30 a.m.
