A Letter From Roy Disney

You and I have something in common — we both believe with all our hearts in LGBTQ+ equality.

My wife, Sheri, and I have been members of HRC for over 20 years. Equality matters deeply to us, especially because our child, Charlee, is transgender and a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community.

Every human being born into this world has an equal right to be … to be who they are and to be accepted and cherished completely and unequivocally for who they are. We love our children exactly as they are and without judgement.

We were heartbroken when Ron DeSantis signed the “Don’t Say Gay or Trans” law in Florida. The fight isn’t over, and we are determined to do everything we can to stop this from happening in other places.

It is simply despicable that state legislators and governors are using fear and lies to rally their base … trying to erase LGBTQ+ youth from school and sports, flat-out telling transgender and non-binary youth that they don’t belong, and revoking the rights of the LGBTQ+ community.

It is a scary time for LGBTQ+ people, especially the youngest ones. But, I know that HRC is doing everything possible to make our country more equitable and safe for the next generation — and Sheri and I are proud to help.

Thank you so much, Roy Disney
