John,

Last month, Team Cori visited Los Angeles to call out the real
life-or-death impact of the Republican’s obsessive attacks on the
LGBTQIA2S+ community through legislation that attempts to criminalize
vulnerable students, parents, health care providers, and members of the
Trans community.

The event was a huge success. We left energized to accelerate our efforts
to ensure our policy goals of eviction relief, passing The Unhoused Bill
of Rights, and ending the racist, homophobic, and transphobic
discriminatory housing policies and practices in place at the city, state,
and national level. But we cannot do this without support from activists
like you.

word about the issues and Cori’s proposed solutions with a contribution of
$5 today.

Republican attacks on our LGBTQIA2S+ community have already had a
devastating impact. Here’s the harsh reality:

* Violence: LGBTQIA2S+ people are 4 times more likely than
non-LGBTQIA2S+ people to experience violent victimization. Over 40% of
LGBTQIA2S+ adults have been physically or sexually assaulted, or have
had money or possessions stolen.
* Abuse and discrimination is prevalent: More than half of LGBTQIA2S+
people have experienced threats of violence, and 75% have been
verbally insulted or abused. Community members are much more likely to
experience hate crimes than non-LGBTQIA2S+ people. Nearly half of
LGBTQIA2S+ workers have experienced mistreatment in the workplace
based on their identity. Black, Brown, and Indigenous LGBTQIA2S+
people and transgender people have experienced particularly high rates
of workplace discrimination and harassment.
* Housing insecurity disproportionately impacts the LGBTQIA2S+
community: Rates of homelessness among LGBTQIA2S+ adults are 8 times
higher than cisgender, heterosexual adults. This community is twice as
likely as the general population to experience being unhoused in their
lifetime.

These are the issues you’ve heard Cori address before on the floor of
Congress, during campaign events, and in her community. She’ll never back
down on protecting our rights. But we need your help to stand up to loud,
resource-dense opponents who spread hate and sow division.
