John,

It's only February, but what a year it has been. Anti-trans bills are popping up all over the country, including bathroom bills in Ohio, sweeping anti-trans bills in Texas and an anti-trans sports ban in the U.S. House. Trump and Musk are hell-bent on erasing LGBTQ+ history and trans contributions from government websites and dismantling trans rights.

As LGBTQ+ Congresswoman Becca said, "There's no bottom to the cruelty. We have an obligation to push back." And she's absolutely right. In 2024, we elected a groundbreaking number of trans and LGBTQ+ candidates, and we're still fighting to help them win. Will you make a donation to stand against this hate and defend trans candidates everywhere?

Look, political leaders across both parties are trying to blame LGBTQ+ people - particularly trans kids - for election losses. But if we don't stand against transphobia and homophobia, they'll keep scratching away at our rights. First they'll target trans kids playing sports, then bathroom bills, then marriage, then workplace protections and the right to live openly. We've seen it before - we know what's coming.

But continuing to elect LGBTQ+ people is the antidote to this hate. We have to show these bigots we're not going anywhere. Pitch in today to send a clear message: we're protecting LGBTQ+ rights and trans equality!

Thank you,
