The campaign plans to have a presence this month at more than 200 Pride events, a new paid media blitz and a fundraiser in New York City.

The campaign plans to have a presence this month at more than 200 Pride events in 23 states, including all of the battleground states, and to launch a paid media blitz aimed at mobilizing LGBTQ voters, two campaign officials said in details first shared with NBC News.

Some of Biden’s allies worry about waning support among LGBTQ voters.

The Human Rights Campaign, recently committed to spend $15 million in six battleground states to help Biden win in November, citing concerns about waning support from LGBTQ voters. HRC estimates that this year one-third of the 75 million “equality voters” — who vote based on support for LGBTQ rights — might not be guaranteed Biden voters.

    Those are not facts. What has Biden done to help lift the lgbtq community out of poverty out of homelessness out of food insecurity? Not a goddamn thing. While Republicans have passed 300 anti-lgbtq bills in the last few years, Democrats have offered nothing to counteract those laws on the federal level. We don’t need the endless and meaningless symbolic victories. We need economic ones and Biden is failing

      I mean, they are facts. Democrats aren’t perfect either. We all know this, but it makes no sense that you’d choose to give the party that has passed 300 anti LGBTQ bills an easy win over a party that at least isn’t passing 300 anti LGBTQ bills. You do you, man. Have a good day!

          Read up on the problems with fptp voting system and maybe you’ll understand that not voting for democrats is actively helping republicans.

          If there was any party that had a chance of beating republicans and promised to replace fptp then that would be the party to vote for, unfortunately no such party exists.

            The Democrats should start voting 3rd party to help create that reality, otherwise they are complicit in what they allow their party to do. This is why politics keep getting worse, Democrats do something like genocide but give people like Biden a pass because Republicans might do the same thing. Rewarding them with power time and again regardless what they do allowing things to get worse.
