Known among many as one of the cradles of the movement for LGBT rights, both the Fire Island Pines and neighboring Cherry Grove routinely draw some of the country's most influential activists and elected officials. And Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese is the latest to make the trek to the beach.
He spoke to several supporters in the Pines on Aug. 9. Solmonese stressed one of his organization's biggest priorities are to elect Barack Obama, pro-LGBT candidates in both the U.S. House and Senate and to secure marriage for same-sex couples in New York and other states.
