Just yesterday, we sent you a headline about the number of anti-LGBTQ bills circulating in state legislatures this year, John. Here's the bad news: since that article was published last week, the number of bills has risen again. Right now, over 319 bills have been introduced - and more are coming.
This horrific slate of hate is sweeping our country. According to a recent report, an overwhelming majority of LGBTQ+ people (including 94% of trans and non-binary people) of all ages are impacted by these hateful bans. 80% of LGBTQ+ people expressed that they feel unsafe.
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 four 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 over 130 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?
Thank you for your support,
