Hi ACLU Supporter, Chase Strangio here. As a lawyer with the ACLU, I can't tell you how many times I've testified to defend transgender health care in states across the country.

The ACLU is relentless in the fight for LGBTQ justice, no matter the obstacles. But we're counting on YOUR support to keep up the fight. That's why I'm reaching out to you now.

There are just a few hours left to have your gift doubled to protect LGBTQ rights. This is your last chance, so please: Make your first gift to the ACLU and have it matched before midnight so we can meet our $30,000 Pride month goal.

Now more than ever, we at the ACLU know how crucial it is for us to defend LGBTQ rights – in the courts and nationwide. We must be able to protect access to gender-affirming care for all, defend the rights of trans students, battle drag bans, and beyond. Falling short of this goal is not an option. That's why we need you with us now more than ever.

As the nation's largest public-interest law firm, the ACLU has an important role to play in the fight against LGBTQ discrimination and anti-LGBTQ legislation in its many forms. We are on the front lines of these fights at the local, state, and federal levels – but it's supporters like you, ACLU Supporter, who power this work.

Without your support, lawyers like me wouldn't be able to do what we do for the ACLU. You make all of these fights possible.

Don't miss this opportunity to have 2X the impact. Donate before the deadline at midnight tonight and your gift will be matched, going twice as far.

To all trans youth and their families: You are loved – and we at the ACLU will always fight for your right to be yourself.

Thank you for joining me in this fight,

Chase Strangio
