Thanks to the hard work of HRC and our partners, marriage equality remains the law of the land through Obergefell v. Hodges and the Respect for Marriage Act.

We won’t let up. We will keep fighting until all of us are free.

The results of Tuesday’s elections proved what we already know to be true: It doesn’t pay to be transphobic.

California, you showed up and showed OUT!

With the passage of Prop 50, we’re adding fuel to the fight against Trump’s anti-LGBTQ+ agenda by paving the way to a pro-equality majority in Congress.

Trump and Republicans worked overtime to give a tax cut to billionaires. But when it comes to helping you put food on the table during THEIR shutdown, they are defying a court order and refusing to distribute SNAP.

While Trump and Republicans continue to use SNAP as a bargaining chip, 1 in 5 LGBTQ+ high schoolers reported they went hungry in the last 30 days.

No one should have to worry about putting food on their table. Congress needs to hear how their inaction will hurt you. Share your story: hrc.im/SNAP
