Full statement from HRC President Kelley Robinson:
Graphic. Text says: "The Good family is one of our own — and today, the Human Rights Campaign joins them in demanding justice. It has been 8 months and 24 days since Renee was shot and killed by an ICE agent, and the United States government has failed to take responsibility for its actions. Her partner, Becca, and brother, Brent, have made the brave and bold decision to hold the government accountable, and we stand with them. Like every person murdered by ICE, Renee should be alive today. The Goods were robbed of what every American family deserves: To be together. — Kelley Robinson, HRC President."

Groceries are expensive. Gas is expensive. Housing is expensive. Blaming LGBTQ+ people won't change any of that. People need solutions to rising costs, not scapegoats.
