More than two-dozen members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly are stepping up to the plate for LGBT equality.

The state legislature announced this week that it has formed an LGBT Equality Caucus, comprised of 26 members of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and Senate, a first for the state.

The caucus, first proposed earlier this year by Equality Pennsylvania, will serve as a resource for lawmakers and the public on LGBT issues.
