“The truth should never be a partisan issue. Facts are facts, and the fact is that Congress must return to the people's business fighting COVID-19, passing laws to ensure fair ballot access for all Americans, and sending the Equality Act to the President’s desk. Misinformation is a disease decaying our democracy. GLAAD is urgently calling on Congress to speak out for truth and safety, to insist social media companies stop the spread of misinformation, and truly put Americans' needs first.”

GLAAD, the world’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) media advocacy organization, is releasing the findings of its poll of LGBTQ Americans as the Biden administration marks 100 days in office. 

The poll measures LGBTQ sentiment on issues including COVID-19 response, concerns about equality legislation passing in the closely-divided Senate, anti-transgender bills proliferating in state legisative bodies across the country, and President Biden’s performance in his first 100 days as president.

GLAAD, the world’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) media advocacy organization, is responding to the historic confirmation of Dr. Rachel Levine as Assistant Secretary for Health. 

Dr. Levine is the first out transgender nominee confirmed by the Senate, and the highest-ranking transgender official in the U.S. government.
