LPAC 2024 Holiday Party in NYC

As 2024 comes to a close, we are reminded more than ever about the power of LGBTQ+ community. No matter what, we’ve got us. Join us at LPAC’s Annual Holiday Party in New York City as we come together to celebrate the incredible progress we’ve made this year and the resilience of our community.

While many of us may be feeling the weight of recent election results, we take heart in Vice President Kamala Harris’ words: “Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars.” And we have so many LPAC stars shining brightly, who will drive equality forward in Congress, in State Legislatures, and in local offices. 

On Election Night, we achieved a 78% win rate—a remarkable feat for an organization founded just 12 years ago, when we didn’t even have enough LGBTQ women to endorse. This cycle, we supported over 200 LGBTQ+ women and nonbinary candidates, showcasing the momentum of our movement. Even more impressively, 57% of our winning candidates on election night were in states carried by Trump—including our very first endorsed candidate, Senator Tammy Baldwin. 

This year’s special celebration will be held at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art, a cornerstone of the LGBTQ community that champions queer art and artists. It’s the perfect place to gather, reflect, and celebrate our collective achievements.
