Join activists and straight allies from across the nation as we demonstrate at Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell — symbols of the American promise of liberty, equality and the pursuit of happiness. Return to the site where the Gay Pioneers launched our movement with protests each Fourth of July from 1965 to 1969. Call on Congress and our new president to enact trans-inclusive hate crimes and ENDA protections, repeal "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell" and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), fund LGBT health issues, and ensure same-sex family equality. As Harvey Milk said, “All men are created equal. No matter how hard they try, they can never erase those words. That is what America is about.”
