Meagan Taylor was jailed in Iowa simply for being transgender — and has yet to be released 

Taylor and a friend were staying at the Drury Inn in Des Moines when hotel personnel called the police on “two males dressed as females” who they suspect of possibly working as prostitutes. When cops arrived they found hormones she uses to aid her gender transition and arrested her for using prescription drugs without a prescription. 

Legal entanglements from a previous arrest and fines have kept Taylor locked up. But she’s not alone. Transgender San Francisco pastor Megan Rohrer has come to her aide and helped raised an overwhelming amount for her cause.
