As we head towards the 2020 election presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg addresses our LGBTQ issues. Buttigieg has released his plan ‘Becoming Whole: A New Era for LGBTQ+ Americans,’ a comprehensive policy that brings Americans together to break down the walls of exclusion & secure full equality for our LGBTQ community. With a plan grounded in the real lived experiences of LGBTQ Americans Buttigieg’s plan covers issues of Equality, Health, Youth & Families, Community, Justice, Honor & Leadership. Buttigieg stated, “Twenty years ago, an awkward teenager at St. Joe High, who didn’t know a single out LGBTQ+ student there, never would have imagined how far we would come. Yet discrimination & the ever-present fear of it continue to govern aspects of LGBTQ+ people’s lives who question if they can be who they are & keep their job, or come out at school knowing they might be bullied for it. When I’m President, we will implement solutions bold enough to meet the challenges the LGBTQ+ community faces while bringing the American people together to understand that our freedoms are bound up in each other.” Under a Buttigieg Administration LGBTQ+ individuals & communities will be supported in every aspect of their daily lives, from equitable health care to workplace protections to a new national mentorship program that will build up a sense of belonging among LGBTQ+ youth. As president, Pete will ensure anti-discrimintation is the law of the land & work to put an end to the violence that is taking the lives of transgender Americans.
