John, did you see this headline from The Advocate: 80% of LGBTQ+ People Feel Less Safe Due to Gender-Affirming Care Bans.

According to the new report, an overwhelming majority of LGBTQ+ people (including 94% of trans and non-binary people) of all ages are impacted by these hateful bans.

It's hard to feel safe when the number of bills targeting your community hit a record high. Over 530 bills were introduced, while 68 were enacted. Drag performers, LGBTQ+ kids and gender-affirming care were all targeted. No matter where you live, LGBTQ+ people shouldn't have to look over their shoulders and feel unsafe. Trans people shouldn't have to travel for hours for gender-affirming care. The parents of LGBTQ+ kids shouldn't fear for their kids' safety. It's not just outrageous – it’s dangerous!

But there is good news: in the face of hate, more LGBTQ+ people are stepping up to run. They're ready to fight back, and we're ready to make sure they win. Donate today to support LGBTQ+ candidates up and down the ballot who will fight to repeal these horrendous bills!

LGBTQ+ rights are under attack. Over the past three years, there were hundreds of anti-LGBTQ bills introduced in states across America. Bigoted governors are gleefully signing them into law. LGBTQ+ kids and families aren't safe right now.

So our community is fighting back at the ballot box. And Victory Fund is on the front lines. We've endorsed almost 200 LGBTQ+ pro-choice candidates and our goal is to support even more. But the only way we can do that is if you help. Will you make an investment in building the strong campaigns LGBTQ+ candidates need to beat the bigots and win?

When our rights are under attack, your support is more important than ever. Thank you,
