In the wake of this weekend's tragic attack against the LGBT community, we join together to protect the rights of LGBT people and to celebrate our freedom to live openly and without discrimination.
We stand in solidarity with the LGBT community in Orlando and across the country and send our thoughts and sympathies to everyone who has been impacted by this horrific act of violence and hate.
The ACLU of North Carolina has worked for decades to counter laws and rhetoric that harm and marginalize LGBT people, and we are proud to continue that work today as we represent LGBT North Carolinians in our ongoing legal challenge to the odious and discriminatory House Bill 2.
We also stand in solidarity with the Muslim community against any reaction to this horrific event that is rooted in hatred or bigotry in any form.
