This Thanksgiving, we want to say two simple words: thank you.

We fought hard this year — and, through it all, your support never wavered. And that truly means the world to us.

From the historic pro-equality wave that you helped ignite in the midterm elections, to the legislation protecting youth from the dangerous practice of so-called “conversion therapy,” to affirming the dignity and respect of transgender people, we made major progress despite great odds this year.

HRC members and supporters make up an incredible family –– a family of 3 million people who have each other’s backs, and who share the same hopes and dreams. We are so proud that you’re on our side.

From all of us at HRC, we say thank you again and have a happy Thanksgiving.
