A brighter future for Texas December 30, 2017 at 3:30 pm As we say goodbye to 2017, I want to make something very clear: Equality Texas is with you. We face 2018 with determination and hope, and we want you with us.

In this fight to win December 27, 2017 at 3:29 pm Just take a look at the movement we’re building. We are energized by a whole new generation of young activists who will never accept second-class status. We are learning from fearless trans leaders what it means to be out and proud in Texas. Our hopeful vision of the future is attracting powerful new allies to stand with us. And with every battle we fight, we change hearts—more Texans than ever before believe that everyone deserves equality and dignity, no matter who you are or whom you love.

Together for Equality December 21, 2017 at 9:13 am This is the time of year when many people are reflecting on the relationships around them.

Express Yourself December 13, 2017 at 3:34 pm What it feels like to be transgender is to be yourself in your own unique way. That’s how my daughter puts it, and I cannot be more proud of her for the simple act of being herself.

It’s Time for Cornyn & Cruz to Withdraw Support of Jeff Mateer December 13, 2017 at 7:15 am Equality Texas calls upon Senators John Cornyn and Ted Cruz to withdraw their support of the nomination of anti-LGBTQ extremist Jeff Mateer as a Federal Judge.   Mateer has referred to transgender children as “evidence of Satan’s plan”.  He asserted that marriage equality would lead to bestiality and other “disgusting” forms of wedlock, and has complained about states which have banned medically-unsupportable and psychologically damaging “conversion therapy.” 

Doing the hard work in 2018 December 6, 2017 at 5:17 pm Educating, motivating, and activating the LGBTQ community and our allies in this next year is required for us to advance a proactive agenda for equal treatment. We have an opportunity to reaffirm our collective purpose to create a state that reflects our values and priorities.
