Last night, CNN and the Human Rights Campaign hosted an LGBTQ+ presidential forum in Los Angeles.
It was a landmark event where members of the LGBTQ+ community directly asked Democratic candidates for president about their records and their commitment to fighting for LGBTQ+ Americans.
Kamala spoke about her long record as an advocate for LGBTQ+ people and her plans to fight for the community as president. If you missed it, you can watch some of the town hall here:
Yesterday morning, Kamala rolled out her LGBTQ+ plan to provide equality and dignity for all.
It’s clear: Kamala has one of the strongest records in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality.
As president, Kamala will establish a Chief Advocate for LGBTQ+ Affairs in the White House, sign the Equality Act into law, reverse Trump’s ban on trans service members, and make PrEP affordable and accessible.
She’ll also work with transgender leaders and advocates to implement a comprehensive agenda to not just address the epidemic of violence trans people face, but to create opportunity and build a more inclusive America.
As she says often: any one day in the life of someone who is denied justice is a very long time. And justice cannot wait.
