"We are here, we are queer, and it is time to change the law" Independent MP Alex Greenwich has introduced his LGBTQIA+ Equality Bill into NSW Parliament this morning, which he claims will be the state's most comprehensive reform of its kind in history | #nswpol @AlexGreenwich The Bill would make gay conversion practices illegal in NSW and ban discrimination practices against LGBTQIA+ teachers and students at private schools. "At the heart of the Equality Legislation Amendment: LGBTQIA+ Bill and the Conversion Practices Prohibition Bill is the truth that LGBTQIA+ people exist, are struggling, should be recognised and protected by law and allowed to thrive," Greenwich said. "It is emotionally destructive to be told that you are bad, sinful, to blame for who you are and that you need to change something intrinsic about yourself."

Tomorrow marks two months since President Museveni signed the Anti-Homosexuality Act into law. I’m currently in Uganda, at the request of our partners, to learn more about how the situation is unfolding and what the international community can do to support. A #thread.

Last week the ACT govt. passed Australia’s first protections against unnecessary medical interventions on intersex people, without their consent. We were on the ground to see the reactions from Intersex advocates, who have spent years campaigning for this across Aus.

The laws in Uganda are shocking and an unjust attack by a powerful government on a small community. These laws put members of our community at immediate risk. Please donate to stand in solidarity with LGBT+ Ugandans
All Out@AllOut

🚨Uganda Anti-LGBT+ Bill signed by the President. The new law criminalizes any LGBT+ activism and introduces the death penalty for “aggravated homosexuality”. Donate to stand in solidarity with LGBT+ Ugandans and provide the safety they urgently require allout.lgbt/ugandaemergency

LGBTIQ+ people who are young, trans and/or experiencing family violence are among those most at risk of unemployment or homelessness. That's why we're joining the call to #RaiseTheRate on Jobseeker and other income support. #auspol #LGBTIQ
