55 years ago

[TAMMY {NAME} FOR SENATE]({NAME}.com/go/67?t=1&akid=2899%2E1096370%2EL6DIXH) [Tammy {NAME}]({NAME}.com/go/2155?c0=tbe-em-jun24.Hijekx&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_EOQ_AC_20240628_AM1_V1_S1&t=4&akid=2899%2E1096370%2EL6DIXH) Hi {NAME}, Today marks 55 years since the New York City Police Department raided Stonewall Inn, a bar in the city’s Greenwich Village and safe haven for the LGBTQ+ community. Several brave Americans, led by Black and Brown trans activists, fought back against police violence and harassment. Demonstrations throughout the city happened over the span of six days, kickstarting the modern LGBTQ+ movement for equal rights. Stonewall is a story of those who came before us and put everything on the line in a demand to be treated with dignity and respect. Those who bravely stood up and spoke out so that others wouldn’t have to live in fear or silence. Progress was made possible by the Black and Brown trans activists who have always been on the frontlines of the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. We must never forget that. I’m inspired by how far we’ve come in the past 55 years, but as Republicans continue their assault on LGBTQ+ rights — targeting and dehumanizing trans kids, banning LGBTQ+ discussion in our schools, and even threatening to overturn Supreme Court decisions that granted our right to marriage equality — it’s clear there is so much more work to be done. It’s going to take all of us to counter these right wing attacks and ensure LGBTQ+ Americans across the country are given the support and equal opportunities they deserve.
