Equality is on the ballot.
“Equality is on the ballot in every race in this election, and our community stands ready to defend our rights and our families.”
-John Hennessy, Board President
We have stood up for the LGBTQ+ community for 40 years in Maine. More than three dozen anti-LGBTQ+ proposals were introduced in the last legislative session alone, and we expect them to resurface next year. We will be ready to defeat them again with a pro-equality majority in the Senate and House.
EqualityMaine will work hard to elect pro-equality candidates up and down the ballot this year and will not rest while anyone in the LGBTQ+ community is under attack.
