The Texas Republican Party says “Homosexuality tears at the fabric of society.” The Family Research Council says repealing “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” will increase sexual assault in the military and “undermine the religious liberties” of military chaplains.
Advancing equality means fighting abhorrent views like these every single day.
To go toe-to-toe with them – to run the full-scale campaigns it takes to win – we rely on the regular support of HRC Partners. That’s why we’re setting a new goal of 200 new monthly donors.
As the manager of the Partners program, I wanted to make it as easy as possible for you to get started. To meet that new goal we’re extending the deadline by just one more day – and, we’re even discounting our offer of a FREE HRC water bottle to the first 50 people to pledge $10 or more monthly.
I’m resending Wednesday’s message, in case you missed it. Please join us in the fight for equality. Thank you!

Only hours left.
‘Til midnight only – get a free, stylish water bottle when you pledge at least $20 $10 a month! |
You can help bring change to millions of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people for the same price as a tank of gas or a few cups of coffee.
I’m talking about an end to workplace discrimination and the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” I’m talking about marriage equality.
By midnight tonight, HRC needs 100 people like you to take their support to the next level with a monthly gift.
Why give monthly?
- It’s easy on your budget, and it goes a long way. Most of us don’t think twice about keeping the lights on or the car insured – aren’t fundamental rights just as essential?
- The enemy is relentless. Relentless, shameless and animated by hatred. The Texas GOP recently declared that gay people shouldn’t have custody of children and that performing a same-sex marriage should be punishable by jail time. It takes steady resources to go up against groups like this every day – to fight back with national grassroots pressure, direct lobbying, public education programs, election organizing, and hard-hitting media campaigns.
- Monthly giving is the right wing’s bread and butter. We need to match our opponents – gift for gift, dollar for dollar.
Now’s not the time to relent – we can’t afford to give one inch back to the radical right. Take the next step with us, and help us ensure we don’t.
Warmly,
Joe Solmonese
President
