"America is at an inflection point."

We can't afford to sit on the sidelines. [LGBTQ+ Victory Fund logo]( "I’ve made it clear that I believe America is at an inflection point. On those rare moments in history, when the decisions we make now determine our fate of our nation and the world for decades to come, America is going to have to choose between moving forward or backward, between hope and hate, between unity and division." -- President Joe Biden Folks: did you see President Biden's recent speech? Once again, he reminded us that this election is essential for our democracy, the future of equality, and so much more. We can't afford to sit on the sidelines; we have to fight back against hate and preserve democracy. [Are you in?

And every American, regardless of gender expression or sexual orientation, deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. But right now, trans and LGBTQ+ people are facing an unprecedented wave of hate. Over 500 anti-LGBTQ bills were introduced this year alone! If we are going to repeal the wave of hateful anti-LGBTQ legislation and protect our democracy, we have to roll up our sleeves and get to work. And the only way to axe these bad bills and ensure we have pro-equality leadership at every level of government? Elect more LGBTQ+ leaders who will stand up for our rights. They're the ones leading on defeating these bills!
