TAKE ACTION FOR LGBTQ+ RIGHTS
Defend Maine’s LGBTQ+ Youth
Every kid deserves the chance to feel safe and supported at school without fear of being bullied or harassed for who they are.
The billionaire-funded anti-trans ballot question would take that chance away from some of the most vulnerable kids in Maine. The fight isn’t over. Join us in pushing back against anti-trans political attacks across the state.
Tell Your Reps: Respect the Right to Read LGBTQ+ Stories
A bill proposing the nationwide ban of LGBTQ+ stories in public schools and public libraries was just introduced. It would give politicians broad authority to restrict whose stories are allowed on our shelves and what media people are allowed to access.
Tell Your Senators: Vote No on “Don’t Say Trans”
On May 20, the U.S. House of Representative passed HR 2616, a federal version of the “Don’t Say Trans” bills harming trans and gender diverse students in states across the country. We need you to tell your senators to vote NO on HR 2616.
