The Biden-Harris campaign launched a strategic initiative Wednesday to rally the LGBTQ+ community in support of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris's reelection in 2024.

The current administration is the most pro-LGBTQ+ in history.

The new program, "Out for Biden-Harris," highlights the campaign's focus on the LGBTQ+ community and acknowledges its pivotal role in previous electoral wins.

Campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez discussed the crucial role of the LGBTQ+ community in electoral victory in an exclusive to The Advocate.

"LGBTQ+ voters are a force to be reckoned with. They were critical to our victory in 2020, and they will be critical to winning again this November. That's why we're thrilled to launch Out for Biden-Harris, which will harness the LGBTQ+ community's organizing prowess to reelect President Biden and Vice President Harris this November," Chavez Rodriguez said in a statement

Normally, I don't get into politics. Last summer (June 2023) Donald Trump posted that if elected he would order federal agencies to prohibit gender transition at any age. We are already seeing hundreds of anti-LGBTQ laws being passed all over the country. Since taking office, the Biden-Harris Administration has made it possible for transgender military personnel to serve openly and receive gender-affirming care. There is more work to do and we need all the help we can get. If you are so inclined, get involved.
