If you haven’t already, register to join us at our upcoming CADEM Celebrates Harvey Milk Day & LGBTQ+ Pride Event on May 24 from 6-7 PM PDT.

And this just in: Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara and Assemblymember Evan Low will be joining the program too.

As the Supreme Court moves to potentially reverse Roe v. Wade and with it over 50 years of precedent protecting the right to privacy, it is now more important than ever that our LGBTQ+ clubs, organizations, people, and allies mobilize in defense of progress. That is why your elected leaders, activists, and advocates from across California will discuss the importance of leveraging PRIDE for social justice.

We can keep marching toward equality or be stopped in our progress and shoved backwards.

In the month of June, we celebrate the contributions our LGBTQ+ brothers, sisters, and siblings have made in the fight for equality and civil rights. June was chosen as pride month in honor of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan, which was a tipping point for the Gay Liberation Movement, and today symbolizes a far larger fight for equality and freedom. As Republican leaders increasingly attack America’s transgender communities, instigate hateful culture wars, and undermine the fundamental right to privacy, this fight continues today. This June will be a monumentally important celebration of pride in our diversity, collective strength, and defiance in the face of injustice.
