LGBTQ Task Force Queer The Vote Drive

By Charlotte Robinson, August 08, 2022

With the November midterm election approaching way too fast the National LGBTQ Task Force's Queer the Vote campaign is ramping up. Queer the Vote campaign was created to educate & mobilize LGBTQ+ rights supporters during key election cycles & fight the assaults on our LGBTQ+ community. This year state lawmakers have proposed a record 238 bills that would limit the rights of LGBTQ+ people. Queer the Vote is on the frontlines as a dynamic vehicle for power-building & transformative legislative wins but they cannot do this without you. Please sign up now with the Task Force's field program for opportunities to learn about how to build campaigns, become an organizing leader in your community & create & run phone banks & text banks. You can do this remotely & in-person & your time will help build lifelong skills in organizing & community advocacy. In 2022 our LGBTQ community has been dealing with the largest wave of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in recent memory. Despite all the progress we’ve made to end discrimination millions of LGBTQ people face barriers in every aspect of their lives including housing, employment, healthcare, retirement & basic human rights. So if you are an LGBTQ+ person or an ally interested in being a part of seismic change across the country the National LGBTQ Task Force is driving Queer the Vote to educate & mobilize LGBTQ rights supporters to train & mobilize millions of activists across our nation & build a world where you can be you. Sign-up deadline is August 10th.
