Stonewall Democrats

Stonewall Democrats is a political organization within the Democratic Party that advocates for LGBTQ+ rights and issues. Founded in the 1990s, it aims to promote equality and represent the interests of the LGBTQ+ community in the political arena. The organization engages in grassroots activism, helps elect candidates who support LGBTQ+ rights, and works to increase awareness of issues such as marriage equality, anti-discrimination laws, and healthcare access. Named after the Stonewall Inn, the site of a pivotal 1969 uprising for LGBTQ+ rights, Stonewall Democrats seeks to ensure that LGBTQ+ voices are heard within the larger political discourse.
