One year ago today, the House of Representatives passed the Equality Act, which would extend federal civil rights protections to LGBTQ Americans and outlaw discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.
It took courage, grit, and determination to pass this bill in the House, and it was a significant victory for the representatives and LGBTQ Frontline members who fought their hearts out to get this legislation through — like Chris Pappas from New Hampshire, Sharice Davids from Kansas, and Angie Craig from Minnesota.
All three made history in 2018 when they became the first LGBTQ representatives from their respective states. Now, they're running for re-election in some of the toughest districts in the country — districts that Trump won in 2016.
Look, I know what it’s like to break barriers. I also know what it’s like to compete in a state that went to Trump and win. Chris, Sharice, and Angie need all the support they can get, so I’m asking:
