Our vision is a Nebraska where LGBTQ+ youth feel empowered, celebrated, and embraced for who they are.
We are so proud of everyone who came to testify in person this week!
We are also grateful to all who submitted online comments!

It was a tough two days, but we came together in community and proved by our presence that we are more powerful than any bills could ever be!

Rainbow Parents of Nebraska are disappointed that Senator Kauth has, once again, chosen to scapegoat a vulnerable population with discriminatory, harmful and unnecessary.
Hearings for these bills could be as early as January 20th so please be prepared to join us.

Thank you to everyone who called, emailed and showed up to the BPS board meeting last night!

The majority of those who spoke were against the proposed changes.

Unfortunately, we knew the unanimous results were a foregone conclusion, but we have to keep speaking out to hold entities accountable.

LB655 would allow healthcare providers and insurance to deny care or coverage based on a "sincerely held" belief. LGBTQ+ people, women, and people of color are the patients unfairly targeted by this type of policy.

Submit comments by tomorrow, 2/21 by 8am CT | 7am MT bit.ly/2025-lb655
