F*ck Bans: Leave Queer Kids Alone (And adults. And all of us, you absolute freaks.) - POLITICAL IMPACT FUND

embed errored



Take the fight right to the rightwing goons attacking LGBTQ rights, through orgs fighting in states where rightwing politicians are targeting trans people most aggressively (not tax deductible, but still a good time).


If you're looking to make a tax-deductible donation or participate in an employee matching program with your company, you can donate to non-partisan organizations supporting the trans community here.


OK, on to the important stuff:

Rightwing politicians are targeting trans people in legislatures across the country. They’re trying to divide and scare and distract people because their actual agenda (tax cuts for billionaires, pollution for the rest of us) stinks. So they stoke fear and confusion to rile up their base and turn hateful bullshit into an applause line. And you know what? It absolutely sucks. 


But here’s the good news. These out of touch weirdos are in a bind. Because it turns out that threatening doctors and loving parents for supporting trans teens, banning books, silencing gay teachers, obsessing over bathrooms in a pretty creepy way - none of these attacks on our basic freedoms are very popular. 


So let’s fight back. That means protecting vulnerable people right now - by supporting organizations on the ground in states that are banning care and targeting trans youth. And that means bringing as many people as we can into this fight - to build power and show these rightwing goons that they’re not just wrong and cruel - they’re losers too. 


Chip in today to our FUCK BANS: LEAVE QUEER KIDS ALONE fund. 


Your donation will be split evenly between the following recipients: 


  • The Human Rights Campaign in Arizona is working to block extreme anti- LGBTQ+ bills at the state, local, and federal levels of government. They are working towards passing statewide nondiscrimination protections for all LGBTQ+ Arizonans by mobilizing their members, supporters and Equality Voters to flip AZ's State House and State Senate to pro-equality chambers!
  • Equality Ohio is working to block extreme anti- LGBTQ+ bills at the state, local, and federal level. It has never been more important to fight extremism at the state level, and their policy team works every single day to lead that fight in Ohio.
  • Georgia Equality mobilizes pro-equality voters throughout the state to support the adoption of LGBTQ+ policies and legislation and elect pro-equality candidates on a state and local level.
  • Planned Parenthood New Hampshire Action Fund (PPNHAF) is the advocacy and political arm of Planned Parenthood of Northern New England, one of the largest providers of gender-affirming care in New England. PPNHAF is fighting the attacks aimed to ban safe, legal, and medically necessary health care and advocating for policies that protect and expand safe and affirming health care for all. Their work includes electing pro-equality champions at every level of office who support the mission of a healthier, more inclusive place for all Granite Staters.
  • Equality North Carolina is dedicated to securing rights and protections for the LGBTQ community. They are invested in ensuring that every North Carolinian can see themselves in this movement and helping create a safer, more equitable world for all marginalized folks.


There has never been more trans visibility than right now. There has never been more support for gay and trans and queer young people than right now. That’s why Republicans are lashing out. It’s desperate and evil and destined to fail. But it’s up to us to make that true, today and every day.


Fuck these creeps. Fuck these bans.
