HRC in Wisconsin

“VP @KamalaHarris and I are ready. Let’s win this, Wisconsin.” - U.S. Senator @tammybaldwin @HRC #TammyBaldwin #weshowup #louderwithpride #equalitywins #ReproductiveRights #HarrisWalz2024

Kamala Harris: To president Biden and Dr. Biden, thank you for your faith and support. To governor Walz and the Walz family, I know your service to our nation will continue.

In Massachusetts, we defend civil rights. We protect reproductive freedom. We believe in the dignity and worth of everyone—whoever you are, wherever you’re from, whoever you love.  That was true yesterday, it’s true today and will be true tomorrow. That’s my promise to you.

I am so grateful this was sent to me this morning. #bydhttmwfi

Our freedoms and rights are worth the fight. While we are heartbroken, our community is not broken. We will continue the work to make sure each of us can live the promise of America. We will continue to show up in our fight for equality.

My message about the election results:

The Mountaintop We lift every voice and sing — The name of a Black Woman who stood at the mountaintop. With audacity that reflected off the glass ceilings that shattered when you spoke her name. Kamala Devi Harris. You stood. Standing in the spirit of Shirley Chisolm, Unbought, Unbossed and Undenying. You dreamed. The girl who would not be deferred and went on to write a letter to the world with a signature that now reads — It’s Possible. It’s Possible for a Black girl from Oakland, California, to see the mountaintop. And when she gets there to take the world off her shoulders and sit. Sitting in the resilience of Fannie Lou Hammer, you took the world by Storm. Never going Rouge and letting anyone take you out of character. You laughed. You filled rooms with hope and integrity and lit paths with perseverance. You opened. Doors that had been closed. You stepped — Over walls that had been built. You climbed. The Mount Everest of expectations with a smile that sat at the intersection of joy and justice. Because a country built in spite of you, you stood in spite of. You are the embodiment of what can be, unburdened by what has been. Rest in the knowing that you are ours. We thank you for the view from your moutaintop.

Kamala Harris addresses young people watching her concession speech. "It is okay to feel sad and disappointed. But please know it's going to be okay," she said.

A million thanks to everyone who volunteered, told their stories, and sacrificed so much for our country and families. Take time to gather your strength. Hug your kids. Take a break. And when you’re ready, lace up your shoes, roll up your sleeves, and get back in the fight. I can’t wait to join you.

We showed up.

Vice President Kamala Harris: "The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not what voted for but hear me when I say the light of America's promise will always burn bright as long as we never give up and as long as we keep fighting."

Congratulations to Senator @TammyBaldwin! She is a champion of progress and will continue fighting for a brighter future of equality. Thank you to thousands of volunteers in Wisconsin who helped send our country’s first LGBTQ+ Senator back to Congress: hrc.im/election

Our fight for equality is a story of victories, setbacks, and our determination to keep moving forward. We will face this next challenge together, united in the belief that, in the long term, equality will win out & love will trump hate. We’ll never stop fighting for equality.

Congratulations on your reelection, Rep. @gretaneubauer!

We're heartbroken by the election results. We know what challenges we face ahead in our fight for full LGBTQ+ equality. Make no mistake: you are not alone. Our ancestors taught us that resilience is our superpower. You are loved, and you have an entire community with you.
