The far right’s hate is loud.

But our love is louder.

Texas Freedom Network (TFN) fights for the full equality and inclusion of LGBTQIA+ Texans.

The Fight for LGBTQIA+ Equality in Texas

What We’re Up Against

Rather than representing all the people they’re elected to serve, far-right extremists and politicians attack LGBTQIA+ Texans at every turn — simply because of who they are or whom they love.

TARGETING TRANSGENDER TEXANS

In 2021, the Texas Legislature banned transgender kids from playing on sports teams that align with their gender identity, and in 2022, they weaponized CPS to go after loving families who support their children.

BANNING LIFESAVING HEALTHCARE

In 2023 — despite massive public resistance — Gov. Greg Abbott signed SB 14 into law, banning lifesaving gender-affirming care for transgender youth including puberty blockers and hormone therapy.

CREATING UNSAFE CLASSROOMS

Right now, far-right school board members in ISDs across the state are targeting LGBTQIA+ students, families, and teachers by banning LGBTQIA+ books and passing harmful policies on gender identity and expression.

LGBTQIA+ Texans Are Here to Stay.

Texas is our home, and it belongs to all of us.

Texas Freedom Network advocates for a state where all people can feel safe and at ease, thrive, and exist — freely and authentically — without fear of being targeted.
