Happy Pride Month, Harris! In the face of far-right attacks, some political pundits believe that Democrats should retreat from the fight for diversity, equity, and inclusion — in other words, the fight for basic human decency and civil rights. I disagree — under this new administration, it is more important than ever to fight back and show that we are unafraid. During the last Trump administration, I partnered with the ACLU of Florida during Pride month — and what I said then remains truer than ever today: "I'm African-American. I'm also a gay male and I'm young. In politics, you don't see that combination a lot. I'm unbought, unbossed, and proud to be a leader in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality in Florida against far-right demagogues like Trump and DeSantis. In Washington, I'll be ready on Day One to fight back against their anti-LGBTQ+ attacks head on. While some want us to be quiet, when our movement makes it to Congress, I will be a leading voice for passage of the Equality Act and civil rights for LGBTQ+ Americans by law.

Thanks for your support. Together, we will move our country forward to a future we can all be proud of. Happy Pride. With gratitude, Elijah |
