These past two election cycles have really put the LGBTQ+ community in the spotlight. And in this episode we're diving into why having LGBTQ individuals in elected positions isn't just important—it's essential. Because let's face it, when it comes to democracy, diversity isn't just a nice-to-have; it's the secret ingredient. Tune in for a conversation about the importance and necessity of centering the voices of LGBTQ+ individuals, as well as the critical role that these individuals play in our society with Sean Meloy and Mayor Annise Parker from the Victory Fund, the only national organization devoted to electing pro-equality, pro-choice LGBTQ+ leaders to public office at every level.
