PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENTS
We’ve launched our 2020 Presidential Appointments Initiative, leading 31 partner organizations in an effort to ensure the next presidential administration is the most diverse ever. And, we are beginning the search for the first openly LGBTQ Supreme Court Justice.
For the Initiative, we're calling on the next administration to hit four historic goals:
- Appoint a Senate-confirmed openly LGBTQ Cabinet member for the first time;
- Nominate an openly LGBTQ U.S. Supreme Court justice for the first time;
- Appoint openly LGBTQ woman ambassadors, LGBTQ ambassadors of color, and transgender ambassadors for the first time; and
- Ensure openly LGBTQ people receive equitable representation among presidential appointees and that they reflect the full diversity of the LGBTQ community.
