Green Party of the United States

Dear Friend,

Today the Green Party of the United States joins in honoring and recognizing Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV). TDOV was founded by transgender activist Rachel Crandall in 2009 to celebrate living members of the transgender community. First celebrated internationally in 2014, the president has officially recognized March 31st as Transgender Day of Visibility every year since 2021 in the United States.

This year the transgender community is facing tremendous pressure from conservative and far-right political groups who have proposed a record 235+ anti-trans pieces of legislation so far this year. 

Unlike the parties of War and Wall Street, the Green Party of the United States has always taken the position that we cannot compromise on issues of life or death for Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual and other gender and romantic minority communities.

The National Lavender Green Caucus represents the LGBTQIA+ members of our party. If you're eligible, please consider joining the NLGC and help the party grow! 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈 

We believe that addressing the deep issues facing LGBTQIA+ communities today require deep solutions. We stand for continuing the struggle for true equality in every way including:

  • A comprehensive National Health Plan including full access to mental, dental, hearing and vision services.
  • A healthcare system that will not discriminate coverage based upon sexuality, gender, ethnicity, nationality, or income.
  • Increasing funding for HIV/AIDS research towards a cure.
  • A guaranteed living wage and an end to homelessness which disproportionately affects LGBTQIA+ youth.
  • Support for LGBTQIA+ friendly K-12 educational materials and free education at all levels through college.
  • Ending senseless mass incarceration and the War on Drugs, which also disproportionately targets queer youth, particularly LGBTQIA+ youth of color.

No other national political party matches the Green Party's commitment to the liberation of all people, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or sex. 🌈

Your continued support of the Green Party helps give our candidates and organizers the training and support needed to win that fight! Please consider supporting that effort today.

In Solidarity,

Margaret Elisabeth,
Co-Chair Green Party of The United States
Co-Chair National Lavender Green Caucus
