9. Why This Matters feat. Patrick Hanley

I KNOW! You’re sick of hearing about the election. I GET IT! But do you know why the LGBTQ+ folks in your life are a little (or a lot) scared this election cycle? Are we being dramatic? Do you know what the Supreme Court does? Have you ever heard of lobbying and how to do it? This week I’m joined by my friend Patrick to talk about the policies that keep me awake at night. Patrick is an advocacy and policy guru and walks me through what’s happened the last four years and what could happen if things continue as they are. I think everyone will learn something from this episode - whether you’re a proud republican, democrat, somewhere in the middle, nowhere on the spectrum OR if you’re queer, love someone queer, or just looking to learn a little bit. Enjoy the episode! • HRC Action Academy: https://act.hrc.org/page/18405/data/1?_ga=2.153982584.1972143352.1603935769-508987722.1603935769
