text: A transgender rights group has purchased commercial time on Fox News during the Republican Party convention which begins July 18.
  The ad, scheduled to air on Friday at at the end of the convention, takes on the issue of whether individuals should be able to use a restroom based on their gender identity rather than their sex at birth.
  The group sponsoring the commercial, Fairness USA, says they chose Fox and the Republican convention because they see it as a chance to reach the most people who disagree with their stance.
  “It’s basically the Willy Sutton rule — Willy Sutton was the bank robber who was asked, ‘Why do you rob banks?’ And he said, ‘Because that’s where the money is,'” said Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, which is part of the coalition. “In this case, where the people are going to be watching TV is Fox News the night of the acceptance speech.”
  “It’s really just a great place to have a conversation with America — particularly the part of America that we’ve had the most challenging time reaching,” she added.
  The 60-second spot features Alaina Kupec, a transgender woman from North Carolina, being turned away and motioned to the men’s room by a restaurant employee after attempting to use the women’s restroom.
  Kupec then speaks in a voice-over about how this is discrimination that can lead to incidents of harassment for transgender people.
  “[The bathroom bill movement] was entirely ginned up by anti-LGBT extremist groups that were looking for something to be relevant about and raise money over and politicians who wanted to make some political hay,” she said. “They need to know that if they do that, we’re going to set their hay on fire,” though she did add she meant that last statement to be metaphorical and not threatening in any way.
  Those against transgender bathroom legislation cite safety concerns and expectations of privacy as reasons for their opposition.
