Happy Pride! We have a number of exciting events and ways for you to engage with LGBTQ advocacy this month, but first, we want to celebrate the passage of the Hate Crimes Analysis and Review Act
[link removed]
! As many of you know, this bill was a primary priority for RiseOut over the last few years to address the alarming lack of transparency around hate crimes in New York State. We are so grateful to all of you for the work you did to spread the word—contacting lawmakers, text and phone banking, signing petitions. All of it made a difference. For more details on this wonderful milestone, visit gaycenter.org/hcara
