Today, we have witnessed a devastating result for our families. Many PFLAG members and supporters have been targeted for harm by policies, disenfranchisement, and worse, and the election results will not provide the relief we hoped for.
Yet, just as the LGBTQ+ people, families, and allies that make up our PFLAG family have always joined the march for freedom, we are united in this fight to protect and respect every member of our community.
Many of us are scared right now, including our LGBTQ+ loved ones and families. But make no mistake, PFLAG is not backing down from this fight. For over five decades, PFLAG has been leading with love to overcome dark efforts. We are uniquely able to meet this moment, to soften hearts, to change minds, and to support our LGBTQ+ community.
PFLAG will continue to show up from the state house to the courthouse, the schoolhouse steps to the steps of the U.S. Capitol and Supreme Court.
We’ve got this. We’ve got us.
