In Boston Beth Shipp Executive Director of LPAC (Lesbian Political Action Committee) talked about LPAC’s commitment to elect Hillary Clinton as our nation’s first Madam President & supporting local & national campaigns to elect candidates who support LPAC’s platform which is building LGBTQ women’s political power by increasing the awareness & visibility of LPAC within our community. The keynote speaker was Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey who was endorsed by LPAC during her 2014 successful campaign. The event was hosted at the home of LPAC Board Member Elyse Cherry. Beth Shipp stated, “Introducing LPAC to so many accomplished & amazing lesbians who came to hear Maura Healey was really special. Endorsing & supporting candidates in 2016 who – like AG Healey -- champion LGBT rights, women’s equality & social justice is LPAC’s top priority for 2016.” Elyse Cherry concluded, “Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, who was her usual fabulous self, tipped her hat to LPAC for providing Maura’s first national endorsement & for LPAC’s critical role in insisting that political candidates listen to lesbians & our friends. Onward!” LPAC was founded by a group of committed lesbian donors & activists who are politically active on the state & national level. Since 2012 LPAC has engaged thousands of LGBTQ women & raised more than 2 million dollars in contributions nationwide building a grassroots community of more than 25,000.
