New data reports that LGBTQ+ people — especially trans & nonbinary people — have been forced to make significant changes to their daily lives, confirming the real-world harm that anti-equality politicians have on our community.
We will not be deterred. We will fight for our freedom to exist.

Today marks HIV Cure Research Day.
We are closer to finding a cure than ever before. But the Trump admin has clawed back necessary funding for critical research, prevention, and care.
This HIV Cure Research Day, tell Congress to restore HIV funding: hrc.im/FederalCuts

Political theater hurts us all.
Instead of cutting health care costs, MAGA leaders reportedly cut a deal with Marjorie Taylor Greene to vote on her bill that would throw doctors & parents in jail for providing health care for young trans people.
