“If you are not at the table, you are likely on the menu.”
Former U.S. Representative Barney Frank
Our network of over 1,000+ LGBTQ+ elected officials from across the nation are leading efforts to advance equality at every level of government. These elected officials represent America at its best – diverse leaders who make the values of inclusion, fairness and justice the cornerstone of their policy positions and decision-making.
