EQUALITY WINS! HRC WELCOMES THE 116TH CONGRESS AT CONGRESSIONAL RECEPTION: <\/strong>Last night, HRC welcomed pro-equality Congressional champions and celebrated the 116th Congress. Leading up to the midterms, HRC endorsed more than 480 pro-equality candidates nationwide, and deployed 150 staff to organize and mobilize voters in more than 70 congressional, targeted senate and key statewide races across 23 states. HRC helped register more than 32,000 voters and recruited more than 4,200 volunteers, who worked over 8,500 shifts and clocked more than 30,000 volunteer hours. In the critical final four days of the campaign, HRC staff and volunteers in get-out-the-vote efforts alone knocked on more than 80,000 doors, and held 36,400 conversations with voters at their doors and by phone on behalf of our endorsed candidates.
