In the local area, a controversy has emerged surrounding Texas state Rep. James Talarico. Republicans have been making jokes about his identity, falsely suggesting he is transgender, gay, or has "low-T".
These comments appear to be an attempt to discredit him as a candidate for public office. Despite the jokes, Talarico is a straight, cisgender man. Further details on this story are available from LGBTQ Nation, which has been following the developments in the local area.
