99 days to get this done; Celebrating Virginia Values Act
99 DAYS: To end relentless, anti-equality attacks from the White House. To defeat an autocrat in waiting. To take back the soul of our democracy. HRC is ready to get this done. We’re mobilizing our grassroots army of volunteers and making clear to voters the importance of pro-equality change.
MUST WATCH MONDAY -- PROTEST + VOTE = CHANGE: ICYMI, watch HRC & Billy Porter’s (@theebillyporter) powerful, inspiring video. Then check out HRC President Alphonso David & Billy Porter’s exclusive interview in The Root. Read more at HRC and BET.
HRC MARKS THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT: LGBTQ people live everywhere, everyday with disabilities. LGBTQ people are actually more likely to have a disability and those who live in that intersection are more likely to face daily challenges. We must do more to ensure that all people with disabilities have equal access to employment, housing, health care and more. More from HRC.
I’m excited to finally announce my Netflix series as an executive producer, with you all!
