Now GLAAD’s Chief Programs Officer, he oversees GLAAD’s advocacy work to advance the stories of LGBTQ people that lead to positive cultural change in the United States and abroad.

The SC Equality PAC, the political action committee of SC Equality, the statewide LGBTQ civil rights group, has weighed in with it’s 1st round of endorsements for state and local races for the 2020 season. And in a state that consistently ranks in the bottom tier for LGBTQ rights, the decisions on which candidates who will champion LGBTQ causes are crucial.
“For the past two years, we’ve watched every bill that would improve the lives of LGBTQ South Carolinians get voted down in our state legislature,” said Jeff Ayers, Executive Director of SC Equality. “It’s our hope South Carolina will become a better place to live for its LGBTQ population by removing daily difficulties for its transgender residents, prohibiting conversion therapy and blocking harmful religious exemption bills.”
SC Equality PAC is in the middle of it’s endorsement process and will be rolling out it’s next list of endorsements in the coming weeks. SC Equality Coalition, the political advocacy arm of SC Equality, will be announcing it’s endorsements for federal offices in the coming days.
