Judge who blocked key Trump executive order has long history of left-wing activism, Dem donations

Additionally, Reyes has been a frequent contributor to Defeat By Tweet, a Democratic-aligned super PAC that supports the Justice Fund, which Influence Watch describes as a group that "raises money for liberal groups in swing states each time President Donald Trump makes a post to his controversial Twitter account."

Reyes said in her Senate questionnaire that she served on the board for the group from "2014-present" although she is not currently listed on the organization's website.

Reyes questioned the Trump administration at length over the order, demanding to know whether it was a "transgender ban" and if the government's position is that being transgender is an "ideology." 

"Women were 'included in the sequel' when passage of the Nineteenth Amendment granted them the right to vote in 1920," Reyes wrote in the footnotes, adding, "That right is one of the many that thousands of transgender persons serve to protect."
