Agenda PAC Expands Board to Defend LGBTQ+ Rights Against the Rising Tide of Radical Extremism
Washington, D.C. – Across the country, a new breed of political extremism is taking aim at LGBTQ+ Americans, pushing laws that strip away basic rights, censor inclusive education, and dismantle decades of progress. These attacks don’t just threaten queer and trans people—they are part of a larger, un-American movement to control what people can say, do, and be.
Agenda PAC exists for one reason: to fight back.
With an expanded Board of Directors made up of political powerhouses, campaign veterans, and LGBTQ+ elected officials, Agenda PAC is laser-focused on eliminating the most vulnerable anti-equality politicians from office. These lawmakers aren’t just wrong—they are beatable. And we’re here to beat them.
“We are witnessing a coordinated effort to turn back the clock on equality, to force Americans into a version of the past that never existed,” said Ted Bordelon, Founder and Chair of Agenda PAC. “They are trying to rewrite the rules of democracy, and they think no one will stop them. But we will.”
Strengthening Our Leadership to Fight Back
Agenda PAC is expanding its leadership with battle-tested experts who know how to win tough elections and dismantle extremist influence:
Board Members:
Ted Bordelon (PA), CHAIR – Founder of Agenda PAC, LGBTQ+ political consultant, and Chief of Staff to Philadelphia City Councilmember Rue Landau.
Dr. Tariem Burroughs (PA), TREASURER – Public health expert, ensuring that equality extends to healthcare access.
Celinda Lake (DC) – One of the nation’s foremost Democratic pollsters, shaping progressive victories for decades.
Joe Trippi (MD) – Nationally renowned Democratic strategist who has taken on some of the toughest fights in modern politics.
Sen. Shevrin Jones (FL) – A leader in the Florida Legislature, standing strong against a government intent on erasing LGBTQ+ existence.
Sen. Megan Hunt (NE) – A fearless voice for progress in one of the most hostile legislative chambers in the country.
Rep. Brandon Woodard (KS) – The first openly LGBTQ+ House Minority Leader in Kansas, fighting extremist policies from the inside.
Rep. Sam Park (GA) – House Minority Whip in Georgia, battling relentless attacks on voting rights and civil liberties.
Alan Beard (NY) – Progressive strategist, directing major investments in political infrastructure to take down authoritarian lawmakers.
Dallas Ducar (MA) – Leading the charge in healthcare equity, ensuring LGB TQ+ Americans are not shut out of lifesaving services.
Kurt Thigpen (NV) – A champion for inclusive education and mental health, pushing back against those who want to whitewash history.
Adam Graham (OK) – A former mayor and strategist fighting to bring equality to regions where it is under constant siege.
Across the country, we are watching a calculated political effort to control people’s lives—telling parents what books their kids can read, telling doctors what care they can provide, and telling adults which parts of themselves they are allowed to exist in public.
Agenda PAC is not here to reason with extremists or plead for our rights. We are here to remove them from office. We target the worst—the loudest, most dangerous politicians attacking LGBTQ+ Americans—and make sure they lose their power.
“This isn’t just about LGBTQ+ rights,” said Brian Sims, CEO of Agenda PAC. “This is about democracy, freedom, and stopping a radical authoritarian movement that won’t stop with us. The people behind these attacks want total control. Our job is to take it from them first.”
