Take Action to Protect LGBTQ People in Your State

The brutal onslaught of anti-LGBTQ legislation, especially bills targeting the trans community, is worse than ever before, with nearly 500 anti-LGBTQ bills introduced into state legislatures across the country in the first two months of 2024.

Lawmakers and governors in Ohio, Tennessee, and Utah have already passed and signed anti-LGBTQ bills into law. Each day a new bill is introduced, this country becomes more and more dangerous for LGBTQ people, especially trans people.

It's easy to feel helpless and hopeless as legislators seek to impose restrictions and bans on our rights. But the truth is, we have the power. A supermajority of Americans support nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ people. It's time to remind our representatives that they should be acting on behalf of the wants and needs of their constituents.

Your voice matters. GLAAD's research shows that the more people who know an LGBTQ person personally, the more support there is for our protections. Let's make sure our lawmakers hear from us and know where we stand. Sign this form to email your legislators right now to express your opposition to blanket bans on our community's freedoms.

Your Message

Dear {contact_data~salutation},

LGBTQ people are facing relentless attacks unlike anything else our community has faced in recent history -- from basic access to medical care, to student participation in school sports, to the freedom to read books in libraries.

These attacks are disproportionately hurting LGBTQ youth. Everyone deserves equal protection, equal opportunity, and fair treatment, especially youth who are the future of our country.

The hundreds of proposed anti-LGBTQ bills across the country will advance discrimination and cause harm particularly to young people, their families, and their loved ones. Young LGBTQ people should not have to watch lawmakers debate their basic humanity.

I'm writing to urge you to oppose blanket bans on our basic human rights or anything that would limit the ability for LGBTQ people in our state to participate fairly and equally in our society.

Please stand on the right side of history and do what is right for your constituents and families.

Sincerely,
{user_data~First Name} {user_data~Last Name}
