U.S. Reaches All-Time High in Out Elected Officials, and They're Ready to Fight Back
-- The Advocate
I wanted to bring back this headline from earlier this year, John. 1,173 LGBTQ+ elected officials are currently serving across the U.S.!
As the only national organization dedicated to electing pro-choice LGBTQ+ candidates, LGBTQ+ Victory Fund and our amazing supporters made history happen, John. We did it in 2022, 2021 and in 2020. We've been shattering rainbow ceilings since 1991!
And now is not the time to slow down. We've endorsed over 170 candidates so far and we're working to make history again. Donate today to keep the momentum going!
Supporters like you ensure we can back pro-choice LGBTQ+ candidates all around the country. Like Montana state Representative Zooey Zephyr, who was censured for standing against an anti-trans bill. Like Nebraska state Senator Megan Hunt and state Representative John Fredrickson, who tirelessly filibustered anti-trans bills in the state. Like Florida state Senator Shevrin Jones and state Representative Michele Rayner-Goolsby, who stand up to Governor Ron DeSantis everyday and ensure he's held accountable. Like state Representative Leigh Finke, who worked hard to ensure trans kids and the LGBTQ+ community would have a safe haven in Minnesota.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are over 1,100 pro-equality leaders in office working overtime to protect our rights. And we absolutely cannot give up the fight to elect even more: they need reinforcements! Pitch in today to keep the momentum going and elect more pro-choice LGBTQ+ leaders!
Thanks again for your support!
