On this July 4th, as we face rapidly growing #authoritarianism here in the U.S., CGE Co-Chair Julie Dorf & former U.S. #LGBTQI+ Special Envoy Jessica Stern note the lessons in resistance we can take from this past weekend's Budapest Pride in #Hungary. autostraddle.com/what-queer-ame…
Let's be clear. Today's House Judiciary Committee hearing was a clear attack on vulnerable communities+the orgs that serve them. These programs have a proven track record of implementing restorative+lifesaving measures. Thanks Rep. Jamie Raskin and Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett! youtube.com/live/Ietm12BlV…
CGE stands w/ international groups condemning the State Department's 2024 human rights report, which omits reports of violence and abuse targeting LGBTQI+ people. These reports help shape diplomatic engagement+protecting individuals fleeing persecution. washingtonblade.com/2025/08/12/lgb…
CGE joins Human Rights First in condemning the US’s move not to participate in its own Universal Periodic Review (UPR) before the UN Human Rights Council this year. This damages the US’s credibility on human rights and accountability. humanrightsfirst.org/library/human-…
Thank you Senator Tim Kaine for reminding us that we are a nation of laws, not men. Everyone- including LGBTQIA+ people- are entitled to equal protection under the law.
The courageous LGBTQIA+ service members who volunteer to defend our country don’t deserve these kind of discriminatory attacks. Shame on Republicans and any Member of Congress who votes to pass any of these amendments! Congressional Equality Caucus
Millions of LGBTQIA+ people and underserved communities around the world depend on these kind of life saving programs. Thanks Senator Jacky Rosen & Senator Tim Kaine for the intro of #HIVMedicationAccessAct to reverse harmful Trump Admin actions that’d eliminate HIV prevention efforts.
Approaching Trans Day of Remembrance, we condemn the anti-trans rhetoric from Members of Congress & the violence that trans ppl face every day. The words of decision makers carry power & consequences. Trans ppl deserve to live in a world free w/o hate.🏳️⚧️ equality.house.gov/trans-rhetoric…
Reintroduced with bipartisan backing, the Global Respect Act affirms on this Transgender Day of Remembrance that no one should face violence for who they are. Grateful to Congresswoman Sarah McBride and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick 🇺🇸 🌍🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 shorturl.at/UXrfL
