Welcome to The Agenda (yeah - THAT agenda), your weekly update on what's happening in the LGBTQ political world. Whatever you do, don’t forward it to Mike Pence. He doesn't need to know what we're planning! Forward it to a friend instead.

Spotlight candidate Davin Sokup shared local resources for Minnesotans to use during shelter-in-place. The type of leader the Minnesota state Senate needs!

CANDIDATE SPOTLIGHT: DAVIN SOKUP



WHAT WE'RE READING
Legislation addressing the pandemic? Nope. Idaho’s governor passed legislation targeting the trans community instead.
Bills like these are particularly egregious considering the trans community was already facing sever hurdles to healthcare access, economic opportunities and more. Vox dives in.
One of the many reasons we’re working to flip state legislatures: gerrymandering. Learn about the fight in Michigan to reverse this harmful practice.

Paid for by the LGBTQ Victory Fund and not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee.

LGBTQ Victory Fund has helped thousands of openly LGBTQ candidates win elections up and down the ballot, from sea to shining sea since our founding in 1991. We believe representation is power – so we elected U.S. Senators Tammy Baldwin and Kyrsten Sinema, Governors Jared Polis and Kate Brown, all seven LGBTQ members of U.S. Congress and countless candidates for state and local government, including Virginia Delegate Danica Roem, Colorado state Representative Leslie Herod and Pennsylvania Assemblymember Brian Sims. And with an unprecedented number of LGBTQ people running for office in this year, we’ll need your support to make 2020 the next Rainbow Wave.
