Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are forcing all trans service members to resign. But the Air Force is also denying them their rightfully-earned retirement pay — solely based on their identity.
This discrimination is illegal, unacceptable, and unAmerican.
Marriage equality shouldn't be up for debate. IMAGE: A rainbow behind the words; a pair of rings linked together; Congressional Equality Caucus logo.
Kim Davis—who illegally denied same-sex couples marriage licenses—asked SCOTUS to overturn marriage equality as she seeks to avoid paying damages to those whose rights she violated.
The Justices should not take this case, because marriage equality should NOT be up for debate.
"LGBTQ+ elected officials won at the ballot box and made history. We know these exceptionally talented public servants are exactly what we need as the antidote to combat the anti-equality virus in our halls of power.”

🚨BAD RIDERS ALERT🚨
The Republican-controlled Appropriations Committee is marking up the Fiscal Year 2026 Energy & Water Appropriations bill—which includes several anti-LGBTQI+ riders.
We urge the Committee to reject these provisions attacking the LGBTQI+ community.
Executive Orders can't erase us.
The Trump-Vance Administration is doing everything they can to undermine the LGBTQI+ community’s rights.
But, Executive Orders can't erase us. We’re still here.
We’ll keep fighting these harmful EOs and won’t stop until full equality for our community is enshrined into law.
Come join us at the 2025 Denver Pride Parade & Festival! We're marching alongside our friends with the Colorado and Denver Democrats, and LGBTQ+ and allied candidates and elected officials from across the state.

Happy Pride Month from the Colorado Stonewall crew!
A black and white photograph of Harvey Milk, with a translucent LGBTQ flag in the background. Bold white text overlaying the image features one of his famous quotes: “Hope will never be silent.”
Today on what would have been his 95th birthday, we honor Harvey Milk, a trailblazer for LGBTQ+ rights whose unwavering spirit continues to inspire us all. Let’s celebrate love, inclusion, and the courage to stand up for what is right. Together, we can ensure that every voice is heard and valued 💙🏳️🌈
Trump’s incompetent administration is back at it—this time with RFK Jr.’s full-blown conspiracy circus—gutting healthcare and endangering LGBTQ+ lives. Between Signal-Gate scandals and anti-science nonsense, it’s clear: the MAGA playbook is chaos, cruelty, and cluelessness. #StonewallDemocrats
Huge thank you to Senate Democrats for standing strong against discrimination and defeating the anti-transgender sports bill. Every athlete deserves fairness, dignity, and the right to compete without political attacks. This is a win for equality! #StonewallDemocrats

hi, cis folks! meet S.9. it's the senate sports ban for trans athletes—a big step to something making trump’s executive order federal law, which is much harder to undo.

if you said you'd stand with trans folks, it's time.🧵

PinkNews [con't] -- Only @1% of the population is trans, and only about half of those are women, or about 1-in-200.
So the odds that that woman in the Ladies Room you think is "masculine-looking" is actually cisgender are about 199-to-1--why gender policing inevitably harms many cis women.

We're pretty fond of it here :) Thank you!
Hi, please remove us from list #2 - we're getting followed by a lot of sketchy accounts. Thanks.
You really don't need to be religious to get this feeling of civic involvement. Whenever someone tells me they're lonely, I tell them to volunteer.
Help the homeless. Build queer community. Work with seniors. Do something to help people around you. Throw a party! Make friends. No church required.
Every time we see this, we should repost it.
Let's make it the anti-fascist version of the "Tom Holland Lip lip syncing to Umbrella in a corset" video: everyone must reshare every time, and no one gets annoyed.
Today's vote in Congress by 81 Democrats to target the trans kids of our military servicemembers should be a defining moment.
Mainline LGBT+ organizations will face a moment of truth when they have to now put public pressure on Dems.
People who say they've "had our backs" will have to show it.
Erin provides a link for finding your Rep so you can thank them for voting against this or let them know how disappointed you are they voted yes.
Caraveo & Crow (!?) both voted Yea.
i've just been told that today is the 44th anniversary of the announcement that smallpox had been eradicated. if you haven't had smallpox (and you haven't, because we eradicated it), that's down to vaccines. improving public health truly does improve things for us all, damn.
In the last few weeks, we’ve seen: 40,000 people join our guide launch 20,000 calls to Congress to stop the nonprofit killer bill ~100 new Indivisible groups form These are the kinds of numbers you see when something big is happening — and they’re only growing from here.
What makes you feel hopeful right now?
For us, it’s seeing this incredible surge of volunteer energy.
Our team of intrepid transgender reporters is up before dawn, ready to cover US vs Skrmetti at the United States Supreme Court this morning.
