“Sarah McBride was born on August 9th, 1990, in Wilmington, Delaware. At a young age, she became interested in politics and government. McBride eventually ran for the state senate and won, making her the first openly transgender person elected to the United States Senate,” the post said, mislabeling which elective office McBride held.
“She was also the first transgender person to address a major party convention, speaking at the 2016 Democratic National Convention. McBride was instrumental in lobbying the Delaware state legislature in 2013 to pass a law that prohibited discrimination based on gender identity,” the school district continued. “McBride went on to work as national press secretary for Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBTQ+ civil rights organization. Today, she continues to fight for equal rights for the LGBTQ+ community, as well as writing several books!”
The district later deleted the post from its Facebook page, though screenshots are still circulating on social media.
