National Stonewall Democrats

No crowns. No kings. Just queer power rising from the ground up.
See you in the streets today for the largest peaceful protest in U.S. history. ✨🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Let’s be clear about why Republicans shut down the government:

To take away your health care in order to pay for billionaire tax cuts.

Large white text reads ‘Our Pride, Our Capitol.’ At the top right corner is the logo of the National Federation of Stonewall Democrats. A banner at the bottom says ‘Tell your Member of Congress: Protect LGBTQ+ Rights’ with the last phrase in bold red.

Congress is moving bills that erase LGBTQ+ people, deny gender affirming care, and cut lifesaving programs. These are attacks on our dignity and health. Our Pride belongs in the Capitol, and our voices must be heard. Stand with us and take action today: stonewall.hilltop-app.com

Authoritarians thrive when truth is hidden and voices are silenced. That’s why we fight back, organize, and speak out. If democracy dies in darkness, fascism thrives in it.

✊🏼🏳️‍🌈The labor and LGBTQ movements are bound together. Unions fought for protections queer workers couldn’t get anywhere else—healthcare, dignity, and equality on the job. Our struggles are connected, and so is our power. #UnionPride #Solidarity

Statement from the National Federation of Stonewall Democrats and the Texas Stonewall Democrats What's happening to Rep. Nicole Collier in the Texas House is unacceptable. She is being denied the basic right to leave the chamber, threatened with police custody, and placed under constant surveillance simply because she and her colleagues refused to hand Republicans a quorum. That is not how democracy works—it's an abuse of power. We stand with Rep. Collier and applaud Texas Democrats for refusing to go along with this power grab. Their courage in the face of intimidation deserves recognition and support, and we call on allies to join them at the Capitol and speak out until this ends. Moments like this remind us of what's at stake. Too often, Black women and LGBTQ+ people are forced to fight unjust battles without enough backup. We cannot allow that to continue. Just as Democrats are standing strong here, we urge them to show the same resolve when Republicans introduce anti-LGBTQ bills that target our community. Equality, dignity, and democracy are all on the line. Jeremy Comau, President of National Stonewall Democrats Robert Vargas III, President of Texas Stonewall Democrats

Rep. Nicole Collier is being detained for defending democracy. We stand with her. And we urge Democrats: fight anti-LGBTQ bills with the same resolve.

If predators had a yearbook, this would be the cover.

This 4th of July, we’re reminded that democracy isn’t guaranteed—it’s something we have to fight for. We must vote, organize, and out to protect our rights and freedoms.

In the middle of the night, spineless Republicans struck a deal to rip healthcare from LGBTQ+ people, disabled folks, and working families. The “Big Beautiful Bill” is nothing but cruelty and chaos for everyday Americans.

56 years ago at Stonewall, queer and trans people, many Black and brown, said enough.

It didn’t end the fight — it sparked a movement.

What we’ve won can still be taken away.

Not just in June. Every day, we fight.

Every kid deserves to see themselves reflected in the classroom. This ruling tells LGBTQ+ students they don’t belong—and that their lives aren’t worth respecting. It’s wrong, it’s dangerous, and it’s cruel. Full stop.

Ten years ago, love won. Today, we honor the legacy of Obergefell v. Hodges—and recommit to defending marriage equality, LGBTQ+ families, and the freedom to love. 🌈⚖️ #MarriageEquality #Obergefell #StonewallDemocrats

The Supreme Court just turned its back on trans kids. We won’t.
The National Federation of Stonewall Democrats is standing up, speaking out, and fighting back. Our message is clear: Trans youth deserve dignity, care, and a future without fear.

#TransRightsAreHumanRights #SCOTUS #ProtectTransYouth

No kings. No fascists. No going backward. 🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈✊ Almost 250 years after 1776, we’re ready to defend democracy again. #NoKings #PrideInDemocracy #StonewallDemocrats

Imagine being so fragile you’re threatened by a ship named after a gay man.

Pete Hegseth erasing Harvey Milk from the Navy during Pride Month isn’t patriotism — it’s spineless culture war cosplay.

Harvey’s legacy will outlast your cowardice. #LGBTQ #HarveyMilk @natstonewalldems.bsky.social

Pride isn’t just a celebration. It’s a call to action.

Because Pride is protest.
Pride is power.
Pride is political.

Join the movement. Fight with us.

But we’re not backing down. We’re organizing.

🗳️ We’re building queer political power in every state.
🏛️ We’re pushing the Democratic Party to stand firm in its values — and reject those who would drag us backward.
🌈 We’re making it clear:

Overlaid in bold blue and white text are the phrases: “Pride is Protest.” “Pride is Power.” “Pride is Political.” At the bottom, the logo of the National Federation of Stonewall Democrats appears, featuring the U.S. Capitol dome and a rainbow-colored bar.

56 years after Stonewall, our fight is far from over.

From school boards to the Senate floor — and yes, even within our own party — LGBTQ+ rights are under attack in every corner of this country. #Pride2025 #Democrats #Democrats #StonewallDemocrats

This Memorial Day, we honor all who gave their lives in service — including LGBTQ+ heroes who served with courage, even when forced to hide who they were. 🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈 #MemorialDay #StonewallDemocrats

The Supreme Court just sided with hate. Trump’s ban on transgender troops is nothing but cowardly bigotry in uniform. Our trans servicemembers serve with honor—this ruling spits on their sacrifice. We will not stop until this shameful ban is dismantled. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #StonewallDemocrats

Join the Resistance this #StarWarsDay!
The Empire’s got nothing on the extremist GOP trying to roll back our rights. This #MayThe4th, we’re calling all Jedi, rebels, and queerdos to stand with the @natstonewalldems.bsky.social
Join the Resistance. Fight back. Be the hope. #MayThe4th #QueerTheGalaxy

We fight back. We build power. Here’s how:

Join your local Stonewall chapter, donate, call your reps protest & testify, and ight disinfo, lift up queer voices!

This isn’t a moment. It’s a movement.

100 days of attacks.
Trump’s return = a brutal assault on LGBTQ+ rights:

Banned trans troops
Stripped health protections
Banned books & queer history
Blocked asylum seekers
Trying to erasetrans identities

They’re legislating hate. We’re not backing down.

Trans Americans who serve in our military are brave, honorable, and selfless. The Trump admin — led by a draft-dodging coward — wants to ban them for who they are. Disgraceful. This isn’t about readiness, it’s about bigotry.

The Trump Administration and the GOP wants to cut funding for a suicide hotline for LGBTQ+ youth.

Not to fix inflation.
Not to lower rent.
Not to raise wages.

Just to hurt queer kids. That’s their agenda. Cruelty. Always cruelty.

Let the warning ride forth once more—tyranny is at our door.

From Boston’s Old North Church to every statehouse targeting our rights, the alarm is sounding. Bans on healthcare, attacks on drag, erasure from classrooms—this is the new face of tyranny.

Queer people won’t back down. We rise.

Today we say it loud and proud: HANDS OFF our rights, our healthcare, our trans siblings, and our democracy.

The LGBTQ+ community is here and fighting back.

#HandsOff #LGBTQRights #StonewallDemocrats

Today, on Transgender Day of Visibility, we honor the strength, leadership, and contributions of trans people who have always been at the forefront of the fight for equality — from Stonewall to today.

Our message is clear:
We see you.
We celebrate you.
We fight with you.
We go nowhere without you.

Trump’s incompetent administration is back at it—this time with RFK Jr.’s full-blown conspiracy circus—gutting healthcare and endangering LGBTQ+ lives. Between Signal-Gate scandals and anti-science nonsense, it’s clear: the MAGA playbook is chaos, cruelty, and cluelessness. #StonewallDemocrats

🚨 Hands Off DC! 🚨 Call your senators NOW! Extremists are slashing $1B+ from DC’s budget & attacking its right to self-govern. This is a direct hit on LGBTQ+ rights, racial justice & democracy. We refuse to kneel to fascists. DC Statehood NOW! #HandsOffDC #DCStatehood @stonewalldems51.bsky.social
