Freedoms for LGBTQ+ & All Americans Are on the Ballot: Make a Plan to Vote
Today is National Voter Registration Day, a chance to unite as a country in our democracy, and around the issues important to LGBTQ people and all Americans.GLAAD polling of LGBTQ voters has consistently shown our top concerns are the same as most Americans: abortion, healthcare, jobs and the economy, and climate change.
The lives of LGBTQ people and especially queer people of color are deeply affected by these issues, and they are rooted in values every American cherishes: freedom, health and safety, love for our children, and a desire for a more prosperous future.GLAAD urges the media to include LGBTQ voices in the campaign conversation.
LGBTQ people can talk with their families and friends about the freedoms at stake and on the ballot this election for all of us:Freedom to Be Who We AreLGBTQ people are out in greater numbers than ever before.
Nearly 21 percent of GenZ is LGBTQ. This visibility and freedom to be yourself is rightfully celebrated, harms no one, and inspires growth for each LGBTQ person and their communities.
