Charles Moran steps down as Log Cabin president
Log Cabin Republicans President Charles Moran announced today (Wednesday, Jan. 8) that he will be stepping down from his leadership of the organization after five years at the helm.
His presidency marked a period of growth for the organization and acceptance by the party. Moran was named managing director of Log Cabin Republicans in 2019 and president in 2021.
According to a press release, the organization played a critical role in the 2022 midterms, securing the 2024 re-election of Donald Trump and paving the way for the Republican Party’s historic embrace of LGBTQ conservatives and their allies during his tenure. “The past few years have been an absolutely pivotal moment for the Log Cabin Republicans as we were welcomed into the Republican Party like never before and vastly expanded our messaging, our membership and our field operations for campaigns up and down the ballot,” Moran said in a statement. “At the same time, we met and overcame both old and new challenges.
The organization has never been in a more influential position to work with our allies in Washington, fight for President Trump’s agenda, and continue to elect strong conservatives in 2026 and beyond.” A long-time goal of the organization was met when anti-LGBTQ language was removed from the Republican platform. — David Taffet
