Together, we elected Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, won the Georgia runoffs and achieved pro-equality majorities in the House and Senate. Now we’re going to pass the Equality Act through Congress and ensure protections for LGBTQ people nationwide.
Fighting for equality means we can’t afford to let anyone fall through the cracks. We work locally, nationally and globally on issues that affect the LGBTQ community. HRC partners with people across demographics, industries and governments to provide leadership on how to back up pro-equality statements with real action — and create a society where none of us is left behind.
More About UsHRC’s campaigns are focused on mobilizing those who envision a world strengthened by diversity, where our laws and society treat all people equally, including LGBTQ people and those who are multiply marginalized.
President Biden’s executive order extending civil rights protections to LGBTQ people is a major milestone for equality. Now, we must cement these protections into law. The Senate must pass the Equality Act, which will finally provide consistent, explicit non-discrimination protections for LGBTQ people. Take action below!
