Mama Bears, let’s lean into allyship even more and leverage our “mom superpowers” to protect trans rights! Join HRC’s Count Me In movement to protect transgender and non-binary people and support LGBTQ+ equality!
Enemies of equality are advancing well-coordinated and well-funded campaigns against our community. They are targeting trans and non-binary youth and adults with an unprecedented onslaught of anti-equality bills across the country. This is happening at the same time that LGBTQ+ people are facing a record level of violence. Those of us who have experienced discrimination simply for being ourselves know the long-lasting damage this can have on people’s lives.
Let’s become Moms for Equality and join forces with the Human Rights Campaign to fight for a better world for our LGBTQ+ community and this campaign, especially our transgender and non-binary loved ones who are under particular attack.
Mama Bears, we’re asking you to sign HRC’s Count Me In Pledge — and work every day to make the world a safer, more equitable place for trans and non-binary people. Please add your name and get your free HRC sticker to show your support today! HRC will keep you up to date with quick and easy ways to make an extraordinary impact for equality.
Join Count Me In today!
READ THE FULL PLEDGE
How many transgender and non-binary lives must be threatened and attacked for people to pay attention? How many hateful bills will anti-equality politicians have to put forward for more folks to say they’re sick of it? How much dangerous and stigmatizing propaganda about trans and non-binary people will influential people get away with spreading before it’s finally a deal-breaker? When will enough be enough?
Enough starts today… with you and your commitment to uplifting and supporting the transgender and non-binary community. It’s going to take all of us to push back against this hate. Can we count you in?
COUNT ME IN.
This is about more than words on paper: This is about taking action, fighting back and showing up in a real way for transgender and non-binary people every chance you get. This is about turning our solidarity into our collective power, putting in the work to advance equality and justice.
Together, we can transform the world.
TRANSGENDER PEOPLE ARE UNDER ATTACK EVERYWHERE
In state legislatures across the country...
Anti-equality politicians are acting to separate trans youth from their families, educators, support systems and friends. They are determined to isolate and endanger trans and non-binary kids just to mobilize their radicalized, contrarian bases. Picking on and threatening the most vulnerable among us isn’t just bullying — this is cynical, unscrupulous and potentially deadly governing.
These politicians are banning trans kids from playing sports consistent with their gender identity. They’re banning books with LGBTQ+ characters from school libraries and discussions of LGBTQ+ people from classrooms. They’re banning drag story hours. They want to make it harder for students to establish LGBTQ+ allied student groups in schools and to force teachers to “out” students to their parents before the student is ready. And they’re trying to deny trans kids from receiving age-appropriate, medically necessary, gender-affirming healthcare — best-practice care that could save their lives. When they attack our kids — a whole generation of trans and non-binary people — they attack our entire community.
Transgender lives are on the line.
Transgender adults are also at grave risk. Recent years have been among the deadliest years on record for trans people, especially Black and Brown trans women. The people violently taken from us aren’t numbers or statistics. They are loving partners, parents, family members, neighbors, coworkers and friends. This violence is an epidemic, fueled by disinformation and hate, and it must be stopped.
We’ve had enough. It's on us to do something about this. We need you to take action with HRC and transgender and non-binary people around the globe to raise awareness and protect, enrich and uplift their lives. Can we count you in?
