The Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund works to elect LGBT leaders to public office for one simple reason.  They change America's politics.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender office holders are our clearest and most convincing champions for true equality.  As leaders in government, they become the face and voice of a community.  They challenge the lies of extremists and speak authentically about themselves, their families and their community.

"For more than 20 years, the Victory Fund and our supporters have worked to expand authentic LGBT voices in government.  Ensuring that those voices also reflect the true diversity within the LGBT community is a top priority of our organization, so we are grateful for this recognition of our work."  Denis Dison | Vice President, Communications
