Kim wrote an essay on her website, saying:
This is such a huge step forward in our country’s fight for civil rights and I hope that today this will give hope to so many young people across the country. We’ve never had a president so supportive of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community and today I am proud to be an American! I am so happy that our country is making history and moving forward. No more living in the past!
Writing on her app, she said:
“I hope that they learn to respect the planet at a younger age than I was when I learned to be aware. I feel like I’m understanding so much more as I get older. I hope to teach them these lessons as they are growing up.”
