2026 Pride At The Capitol Campaign

Join The Resistance

Legislative Session is the the 60 most dangerous days of the year for LGBTQ Floridians.

During the 2025 legislative session, we stopped every single anti-LGBTQ bill filed. This wasn’t just luck. It was people power — fueled by thousands of Floridians, who showed up, contacted lawmakers, and stood firm in every room of the Florida Capitol where these bills were debated every single day.

We built on last year’s defeat of 21 out of 22 anti-LGBTQ bills by blocking all of them this year. Every last one. 

That’s a credit to the volunteers, donors, partners, and everyday Floridians who stepped up. Our 2025 Pride at the Capitol campaign brought more than 400 volunteer lobbyists to Tallahassee. Thousands more called, wrote, and showed up. When a bill to ban Pride flags was filed, our presence was so strong, no one would touch it after the original sponsor backed out. That’s what happens when a community refuses to be erased. 

Now, we need to do it again in 2026! We know DeSantis and extremists in the legislature are planning their next slate of hate, and it's up to all of us to defeat it.
