Attacking LGBTQ People is Bad for Nevada and a Losing Political Strategy<\/b>
\n<\/p>\n

HRC responded to ads from a new unregistered group called \u201cNevada Parents for Safe Schools,\u201d that demonize transgender people and attack gubernatorial candidate Steve Sisolak for his support of LGBTQ equality.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese ads are egregious, hateful and not representative of who we are as a state,\u201d\u00a0said HRC Nevada State Director Briana Escamilla.\u00a0\u201cTime and time again, in races across the country, we\u2019ve seen that hate is a losing political strategy, yet far right, sham organizations continue to latch on to LGBTQ discrimination and demonize the transgender community to stir up votes. It won\u2019t work. Nevada voters overwhelmingly support LGBTQ equality and won\u2019t stand for these false attacks and smear campaigns against their friends, family and neighbors. We\u2019re on the ground working harder than ever to ensure that Nevada voters — including the state\u2019s more than 600,000 Equality Voters — turn out on November 6 to reject the politics of hate and fear, and elect pro-equality champions like Steve Sisolak, who will defend LGBTQ equality and fight for a Nevada that we can all be proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Nevada, HRC has identified more than 600,000 \u201cEquality Voters\u201d — voters who support LGBTQ-inclusive policies including marriage equality, equitable family law, and laws that would prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. HRC has prioritized investments and organizing in Nevada in the 2018 cycle, and has staff and resources on the ground in the state.<\/p>\n
