They are on their way to San Francisco to meet with a bigger group of advocates, and Jenner wants to know the biggest issues facing the trans community. The scene is not unlike one of Hillary Clinton's early-state roundtables, except Jenner is still learning about how her own political beliefs will fall on trans ears. The group quickly zeroes in on homelessness and unemployment, stressing the importance of welfare programs to provide assistance to trans people when Jenner's well-publicized conservatism bubbles to the surface.
"A lot of times, they can make more not working with social programs than they actually can with an entry-level job," Jenner tells the group.
