And not a moment too soon.

John,

I’m currently safe at home, watching as Joe Biden and Kamala Harris FINALLY become the President and Vice President of the United States. This day is historic for so many reasons, and for countless Americans, it represents the moment when our country can finally begin to heal.

Part of that healing? Undoing four years of damage done by homophobic and transphobic policies and regulations put in place by Trump, Pence and their anti-LGBTQ appointees. And Victory Institute is playing a key role. Our Presidential Appointments Initiative is leading the efforts to help the Biden-Harris team build the most LGBTQ-inclusive administration ever, and now it’s time to go into overdrive. Will you donate $46 or more to celebrate as our 46th President takes office, and power our work for LGBTQ leadership?

President Biden is committed to becoming the most pro-equality president in United States history. And his administration has made great strides, already naming these LGBTQ people to public appointments:

 
 

But we’ve got to keep pushing. As we replace those who targeted our community during the Trump years, we must ensure that LGBTQ voices are leading the conversation. There’s no better advocate for us than an LGBTQ person.

And over 1,100 LGBTQ people have submitted their resumes to us and that is a lot to sort through. We need your support to help place these leaders at every level of government. With your help today, we can continue our essential work and right the wrongs committed under Trump. Donate $46 or more to celebrate our 46th President and power our work!

Thanks again for standing up for equality. Happy Inauguration Day!
