Our freedoms, as LGBTQ+ people and Jews, are in jeopardy, along with so many other Americans. Yes, it’s painful and frightening to hear threats against our families and our freedoms. But we know there is tremendous daylight between executive orders and our rights actually being taken away. There are limits on extreme action built into our Constitution. Executive orders often face court challenges. Legislation seldom gets passed in its original form. Dangerous bills and policies stall, change, soften, and often, many get shelved. Because people like you, groups like Keshet, and our LGBTQ+ movement legal advocacy partners are organized and will take action.

And we know this: When our Jewish communities take action and stand up for LGBTQ+ people and rights, it makes a difference. To support our LGBTQ+ and Jewish community and inspire you to take action and build communities of belonging, we’ve collected resources for you to use and programs you can get involved in to help build the world we all deserve.
