Benji Foley is a 19 year old queer transgender student in DCU. Benji is asking people to vote yes to give people like him the freedom to love and live out their lives as they truly are without being forced to choose between love and identity. He is asking people to vote yes so that he can live his life as an equal citizen.

“I’m voting yes because, as a trans person, I don’t want to have to choose between the person I love and the legal recognition of my gender. We all have the right to love who we want to love, and it doesn’t hurt anyone to vote yes.”
