Jess Herbst is the mayor of New Hope, Texas. It’s a town of 600 people east of McKinney.
Mayor Herbst posted a letter on the town’s website explaining her transition from Jeff to Jess and her decision to live her life as a female."
In today's political climate, we need more of Jess in the LGBT community!
