The Human Right Campaign (HRC), the nation’s top LGBTQ activist organization, will spend $26 million to nearly double its existing political structure and prepare for the 2018 election cycle. “It’s not enough to resist the hateful policies and attacks coming from the Trump-Pence regime–we’ve got to accelerate the pace of progress toward full equality and secure protections for LGBTQ people in states and communities across the country,” said HRC president Chad Griffin.
