Without comprehensive equal rights legislation at the federal level, LGBTQ+ people are subject to an inconsistent patchwork of legal protections in their states and local communities. This leaves millions of our most marginalized people at risk of potential discrimination at labor and in their daily lives.

That’s why The Human Rights Campaign fights for LGBTQ+ equality alongside lawmakers at the local and state levels across the country. Find out what HRC is doing in Louisiana and how you can help secure identical rights for all of its LGBTQ+ citizens.

Communities in Louisiana

HRC has communities all over the US, each with initiatives and events based on local priorities for LGBTQ+ rights and equality. See Louisiana’s group below and discover how you can get involved.
