Winning equality and justice for lesbian, gay, bisexual & transgender New Yorkers and our families
A statewide civil rights organization, Empire State Pride Agenda is committed to fighting for equality and justice for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people of New York. The Pride Agenda advances the rights of the LGBT community by educating policymakers, by building coalitions, by increasing political participation of LGBT people and their allies, and by organizing LGBT communities throughout the state. Begun in 1990, Pride Agenda has seen a number of victories including: the repeal of the consensual sodomy statute in New York State, passage of the “Sexual Orientation Non-Discrimination Act,” and the enactment of domestic partnership laws, transgender non-discrimination measures and equal benefits laws in NYC.
