| HRC statement on the inauguration of Barack Obama |
The Human Rights Campaign released this statement from President Joe Solmonese on the inauguration of Barack Obama and Joe Biden:
"Today's inauguration represents a paradigm shift. The pendulum has swung away from the anti-Gay forces and toward a new president and vice president who acknowledge our equality," said Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese. "For the past eight years, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue was out of reach and out of touch. Our community and do many others are looking at a new day of welcome and great promise.
"We salute President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden on this historic day in our nation's capital and look forward to working with them in the months and years ahead."
The Human Rights Campaign is America's largest civil rights organization working to achieve Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender 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.
