Anna Lardner, a trans advocate in Lane County, has become more active since the 2024 presidential election, which heightened fears among the trans community. She began attending county board meetings to push for protections for trans individuals and undocumented immigrants. Previously a parole officer, Lardner left her job due to negative experiences after coming out as trans. She now works as a therapist, helping many trans clients who face anxiety over their identities and access to healthcare. Lardner's advocacy has gained traction, with increasing community support at meetings. She aims to secure a county sanctuary proclamation, although current protections are limited to state law compliance.
