Hi everyone, it’s @jessetyler - advocate, actor and star of @ModernFam. I’m doing an #HRCTwitterTakeover to celebrate the finale of #ModernFamily and share how you can help keep moving the needle forward on LGBTQ issues!
Over the last 11 seasons, @ModernFam has transformed people’s perceptions of the LGBTQ community through the characters of Mitchell and Cam, showing Americans that queer people have the same hopes and ambitions in life as everyone else. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover
We stood at the forefront of the fight for marriage equality both on and off screen, joining @HRC in advocating for the eventual #SCOTUS decision that established #LoveIsLove. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover @ModernFam hrc.org/press/modern-f…
.@ModernFam also explored the trials and tribulations of LGBTQ couples hoping to create a family of their own. To this day, many same-sex couples still face discrimination when trying to have children. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover hrc.org/blog/hrc-trump…
These last 11 years of @ModernFam have meant the world to our entire cast and we've been proud to work with @HRC in advancing LGBTQ issues like never before. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover
While @ModernFam may be coming to an end, the fight of full equality is far from over. My husband (@JustinMikita) and I are more committed than ever to working with @HRC so that no one faces discrimination for who they are or whom they love. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover
I’ve had the pleasure of attending and speaking at multiple @HRC events across the country and am always thrilled to hear from so many LGBTQ leaders on the impactful work they're doing to make a difference in this world. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover
I’m also proud of my husband, @JustinMikita, for his involvement as a member of both the @HRC and HRC Foundation Board of Directors - whose leadership groups constantly work to ensure every LGBTQ person is fully protected under the law. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover
It’s more important than ever that we support organizations like @HRC as the Trump-Pence administration continues to attack the LGBTQ community. Our rights and our lives are at stake unless we take action. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover hrc.org/blog/virtual-v…
As we speak, the Supreme Court is deciding whether sexual orientation and gender identity are protected under the Civil Rights Act - a landmark decision that would help protect LGBTQ workers nationwide. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover hrc.org/blog/hrc-scotu…
It's also time that the Senate finally pass the #EqualityAct. This legislation would expand LGBTQ rights like never before, ensuring protections in housing, education, employment, credit and more. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover @JustinMikita
The best part is you can take action today to make a difference tomorrow. Email your Senator with help from @HRC to let elected officials know that the time for passing the #EqualityAct is now. - @jessetyler #HRCTwitterTakeover act.hrc.org/page/42748/act…
Thanks for joining me for this #HRCTwitterTakeover and learning how you can keep up the fight for full equality. Sign @HRC’s thank you card to the cast, crew and writers of @ModernFam - @jessetyler hrc.im/ThankYouModern…
