    Hello All!

    I'm going to ask a loaded question.

    How is everyone doing coming into 2025 with the incoming administration? I've had some discussions within personal email groups. However, I thought I would put that out to everyone here.

    From my end, there's a sense of foreboding that anti-queer individuals are going to feel emboldened to push back queer advancements from the last 60+ years. We're already seeing some of that in proposed legislation at the state and federal level, particularly in terms of transgender rights. And with that of course comes a due amount of anxiety.

    That said, I am going to try and take things as they come. But I do feel a need to brace myself and get ready to push back.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    Larry

    Larry,

    We all have to be concerned and ready to defend ourselves. Nothing new here.  I chair a Pride Center board here in South Florida the offers services and support to the LGBTQ community and we are very concerned.
