Happy Pride Month!
Pride is a time to celebrate our community, our resilience, and the progress we've made together. It's a chance to come together, support one another, and be proud of who we are.
But Pride has always been more than a celebration. As the saying goes, the first Pride was a riot. It was born from people standing up, speaking out, and demanding dignity, equality, and the right to exist.
That spirit is just as important today.
Right now, HB 249 has passed the Ohio House and is sitting in the Senate Judiciary Committee. The fight against this bill isn't over, and now is the time to make our voices heard.
This bill targets transgender and non-binary people, drag performers, and our community as a whole. We need to remind lawmakers that drag is not a crime, transgender people exist, and everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and equality under the law.
As we celebrate Pride this month, let's also take action. Contact your State Senator and urge them to oppose HB 249 TODAY.
📞 Call your state Senator: https://ohiosenate.gov/members/district-map
📧 Send an email: https://ohiosenate.gov/members/district-map
🗣 What to say: "I DO NOT SUPPORT THE INDECENT EXPOSURE MODERNIZATION ACT Also known as THE DRAG BAN BILL or HB249!"
We honor those who came before us not only by celebrating how far we've come, but by continuing the work that still lies ahead.
Celebrate. Show up. Speak out.
Happy Pride Month, friends. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
The first Pride was a riot. This Pride, let's keep fighting. 🏳️🌈✊
