Kimberly Walker: LGBTQ

Florida

ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

On June 26, 2015, we celebrated the Supreme Court's landmark civil rights case ruling regarding same-sex marriage. In 2021 the LGBTQ community is still fighting for equality. In several states, Republican governors pushed anti-transgender legislation requiring children to compete in school sports according to their sex at birth. This year (2021) is slated to become the worst year for the LGBTQ community. State legislatures are poised to enact several anti-LGBTQ measures into law. Kim supports:

  • Passing the Equality Act
  • Increasing federal funding levels for HIV/AIDS services and research.
  • Safe Schools Improvement Act. Kim believes every student deserves to have a safe space in an environment conducive to learning. Students will not flourish in an environment in which they fear.
