Working for @ABC out of the Los Angeles bureau this week - reporting for our affiliates. Here’s our story on the historic day in DC. President Biden signing the Respect for Marriage Act. Shoutout to @eqca’s @TonyHoang for being part of it 🏳️‍🌈

Heartbroken by the mass shooting at an #LGBTQ+ club in Colorado Springs. Hateful anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric + the lack of commonsense gun safety laws will continue to fuel this violence as long as politicians refuse to act. Our hearts are with the victims & families of those affected.

STATEMENT — Equality California Exec. Dir. @TonyHoang on @SpeakerPelosi's announcement that she will represent San Francisco but won't seek reelection to Leadership: "She is, without question, the most effective Speaker in history, and we are eternally grateful for her service."

BREAKING: @GavinNewsom has signed #SB107, officially making California a state of refuge for #trans kids and their families. Thank you, @Scott_Wiener @eqca @PPActionCA!

BREAKING: @GavinNewsom has declared a State of Emergency to fight #Monkeypox outbreak and bolster state’s vaccination efforts. Thank you for your leadership, Governor!

Thank you, Speaker @Rendon63rd, for your bold leadership in response to the #Monkeypox outbreak! #LGBTQ+ Californians are lucky to have you as an ally and advocate in this crisis facing our community.

As California’s chief law enforcement officer, I want you to know this SCOTUS ruling does NOT change your rights in California. Abortion remains FULLY legal in our state.

STATEMENT: @PPActionCA President and CEO @JodiHicks on today's Supreme Court decision overturning #RoeVWade: THREAD⬇️

No five Americans — no matter their responsibility or stature — can stop people from needing, seeking and obtaining abortions. But they can, and today have, denied millions of their fellow Americans the basic human freedom, agency and dignity. (1/3) eqca.org/statementonroe…

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has taken away our right to abortion and overturned Roe v. Wade, opening the floodgates for states across the country to ban abortion. The court has failed us all — but this is far from over. ⤵

Proud to stand with our friends from @PPActionCA & @PPNorCalAction and champions like @RicardoLara4CA, @Scott_Wiener, @BauerKahan & @RepGaramendi in our shared fight for abortion access and reproductive justice. #BansOffOurBodies #EsMioYoDecido #SayAbortion

CA won’t stand by while the right to choose is threatened. We’re investing an additional $125 million in reproductive health - and we’re updating existing business incentive programs to provide extra consideration for companies moving to CA from anti-choice & anti-LGBTQ states.

🚨 Statement from @eqca Executive Director @TonyHoang condemning draft #SCOTUS opinion overturning #RoevWade:

Abortion is healthcare. Abortion is essential. Abortion is a human right. #SCOTUS may be ready to overturn #RoevWade, but California will always defend the right to safe, legal #abortion. politico.com/news/2022/05/0…

PERSEVERE: Senate confirms (53-47) Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson As First Black Woman On The Supreme Court

Thank you, Gov. @GavinNewsom for standing with the #LGBTQ+ community against Florida’s dangerous, discriminatory Don’t Say Gay bill. It's time to speak up and show LGBTQ+ children and their families in FL, TX and across the nation that we stand with them. 💪🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ #CaliforniaWay

We are diverse. We are strong. We are Democrats. #WeAreCA. #CADEM2022

“For more than 20 yrs, @eqca has led the fight for #LGBTQ+ civil rights & social justice—& we’ll keep fighting until the work is done.   “Those aren’t empty words—they’re our commitment to LGBTQ+ people & the diverse communities to which we belong.” @TonyHoang @CA_Dem #CADEM2022

The President of the United States gave a shoutout to our Transgender community. And a strong commitment to protect them. TY @JoeBiden 🙏🏳️‍⚧️❤️ #StateOfTheUnion #TransRightsAreHumanRights
