Working For Lesbian and Gay Equal Rights |
The Human Rights Campaign, the largest national lesbian and gay political organization, envisions an America where lesbian and gay people are ensured of their basic equal rights -- and can be open, honest and safe at home, at work and in the community. HRC has more than 300,000 members, both gay and non-gay -- all committed to making this vision a reality. With a national staff, volunteers and members throughout the country, HRC lobbies the federal government on gay, lesbian and AIDS issues; educates the public; participates in election campaigns; organizes volunteers; and provides expertise and training at the state and local level. Founded in 1980, HRC maintains the largest full-time lobbying team in the nation devoted to issues of fairness for lesbian and gay Americans. Goals for the 106th Congress include: protecting Americans from job discrimination based on sexual orientation; including gay people in basic protection under federal laws that are tough on hate crimes; advancing sound public policies on AIDS and lesbian health issues; and fighting discriminatory legislation promoted by anti-gay extremists. |
