8 LGBT names to know in 2016

From: The Washington Post
Matt McTighe
Executive Director, Freedom for All Americans

In most states, gay people can “marry on Sunday and be fired on Monday” because there’s no federal anti-discrimination law based on sexual orientation or gender identity. Freedom for All Americans, the heir apparent to Freedom to Marry (the advocacy group that spearheaded marriage equality), will use the same tactics and playbook to end all forms of discrimination against LGBT people as its successful predecessor. Executive Director Matt McTighe doesn’t mince words when he says, “Our goal is to ensure that no one in this country can be fired, denied a home, or refused services on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity.”
