Many of you have already heard that the 2026 Georg Many of you have already heard that the 2026 Georgia legislative session has ended with us defeating ALL anti-LGBTQ bills! What you may not know, though, is what work goes into making a win like this possible.

Behind every big win is months of organizing, collaborating, planning, and so much more. And let's be clear– we did more than just fight bad bills this year. We also worked to pass good legislation to help make life better for ALL Georgians (more to come on this). 

The state of Georgia is not changing in a vacuum– it's changing only because all of us are working together to improve it. Join us todayby donating at georgiaequality.org/donate/
BREAKING: After a late night at the State Capitol BREAKING: After a late night at the State Capitol to finish out the 2026 legislative session, we could not be more excited to share that WE DID IT! We successfully defeated ALL anti-LGBTQ legislation! Out of nearly 15 anti-LGBTQ bills that we fought against this session, we stopped every one!

Despite underhanded tactics being employed in these last couple weeks, over 2,500 of us contacted our legislators and nearly 400 came out to the Capitol to make their voices heard in-person. 

This win is to be shared by each and every one of us who showed up, showed out, spread the word, and raised our collective voices in opposition to injustice. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The finish line is in view and our team will remain vigilant in defending LGBTQ+ Georgians until we gavel out late on Thursday night (or very early Friday morning)!
