LGBTQ+ bars are more than places to gather. They are sacred spaces where generations of our community have found safety, belonging, joy and chosen family. No one should be targeted for entering, working at or finding community in an LGBTQ+ space.

Last week, allies of trans youth gathered outside the Clark County School Board to show support for Nevada’s trans students. Moments like this show us voters believe in treating trans youth & all LGBTQ+ people with dignity & respect…momentum we need to keep up heading into the midterms!

While we celebrate ratification of the 19th Amendment, we recognize that it wasn’t until 1965 that Black women finally gained the ability to exercise the same rights that white women gained in 1920. Our elections will never be fair as long as the voices of any women are suppressed.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of musical icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton. As legendary for her exaggerated glamour as her hit songs, Dolly was a longtime ally & supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. Dolly, we will always love you.

"Ain't I got my civil rights?"

Trailblazer, pioneer, hero, performer, activist. Her life shaped the movement, and her advocacy changed the course of our shared history. Marsha P. Johnson would have been 81 today – we honor her memory, celebrate her life, and do our best to continue her work.

93% of our endorsed candidates were victorious in last month's NV primary. This is one of the strongest showings we’ve had since endorsing at the federal, state & local level. We’ve got a chance to pry control of Washington from Trump’s tiny orange hands, and it’s imperative we Rise Up & VOTE!

The promise of freedom is a beautiful idea, one which has yet to truly reach from sea to shining sea. On another monumental anniversary of this country’s founding, while we may remember with pride the progress we’ve made, we know, too, that there is far to go.

It was a night that changed the course of history, & we still say the names of the those who bravely lit the torch: Stormé DeLarverie, Sylvia Rivera, Marsha P. Johnson, & many more. Stonewall wasn’t the first act of resistance, nor will it be the last, yet we will always remember it with reverence.

Marriage equality didn’t happen overnight. It was a right fought for by millions of Americans over decades, who advocated with consistency, grit, determination, and bravery. 11 years later, this victory reminds us: when we show up, we win.
