Hello Friend,
While we are celebrating Latinx Heritage Month, we wanted to come together as an HRC family to honor the LGBTQ Latinx community and our allies.
Nothing about this year has unfolded as expected, including this year’s commemoration. Not only are we living through a global pandemic that has disproportionately impacted LGBTQ Latinx folks, but we are also just weeks away from Election Day.
Now more than ever, our actions must speak louder than our words.
That’s why I’m reaching out personally to make sure you and your loved ones have a voting plan. We need to vote like our lives depend on it — because that’s the reality for millions of LGBTQ Latinx folks throughout this country.
With HRC’s Election Center, you can confirm your voter registration status (in both English and Spanish), make your voting plan, volunteer to help our critical work, sign up to be a poll worker and more. Take a look and share it with your networks so they are ready come November, too.
The Latinx vote could change the course of our country’s history and, by coming together to unite for equality, we can all help chart a path for a better, more inclusive future.
Exercising our civil right to vote in this election will not only make sure our voices are heard, but it will also put an end to a hateful, discriminatory agenda designed to undermine Latinx self-worth and collective strength.
Our future is on us, as a community. As Latinx Heritage Month closes, remember there’s no better way to live into our storied history than by making some of our own with our vote. Make your voting plan today.
Thank you,
