Human Rights Campaign

image The Human Rights Campaign is America's largest civil rights organization working to achieve lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) equality. By inspiring and engaging all Americans, HRC strives to end discrimination against LGBT citizens and realize a nation that achieves fundamental fairness and equality for all.

HRC endorsed Neil Abercrombie for governor soon after Governor Lingle vetoed a bill that would have allowed civil unions in Hawaii. Neil's position on the issue has been consistent from the start. Neil stands with Sen. Daniel Inouye and many others who say we must never tolerate discrimination. Civil unions respect our diversity, protect people's privacy and reinforce our core values of equality and aloha.
