Today we released our 2023 Accelerating Acceptance report, measuring American’s comfortability with and acceptance of LGBTQ Americans. The report this year reveals a high level of support for equality as LGBTQ Americans face rising rates of violence and harmful legislation.
Long live drag! Today’s ruling means that anti-LGBTQ politicians in TN can't ban a vital art form. But drag is under attack in other parts of the country, with bills to criminalize performers and eliminate safe spaces. Take action:

WE WON! Judge Parker has declared Tennessee's anti-drag law unconstitutional! Friends of George's would like to thank Brice Timmons and Melissa Stewart at Donati Law and all who have stood by us during this fight!

displays to the back of some stores and Bud Light can change plans for social media campaigns, but LGBTQ people, including Target's customers and employees, don't get to hide who we are. We deserve allies who aren't afraid to show everyone who they are.
