#EyesOnChechnya
Take Action
As men suspected of being gay or bisexual people have been rounded up, tortured, and even killed in the Russian republic of Chechnya, HRC has taken action to help put an end to the atrocities.
From working with Congress to activating our membership and raising up our voices together, HRC has sent a clear message to the Trump Administration and the world that we have our #EyesOnChechnya and that these crimes against humanity must stop.
