A report from the LGBT Movement Advancement Project (MAP) and the Evelyn & Walter Haas, Jr., Fund shows lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) Americans have made dramatic gains in equality over the past 10 years. The report, A Decade of Progress on LGBT Rights, is available for download here.
“After 50 years of supporting causes that help advance equality, we understand that making meaningful change requires time. But these facts make it clear that equal rights for gay people are advancing at an exceptional rate.”
~ Ira Hirschfield, President of the Haas, Jr. Fund.
“The remarkable achievements toward LGBT equality tend to be obscured by day-to-day struggles, and overall progress often goes unnoticed nationally.”
~ Linda Bush, Executive Director of the LGBT Movement Advancement Project (MAP)
