Congressman Josh Gottheimer (D-5) today received the endorsement of the Human Rights Campaign PAC (HRC PAC) today in support of his re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives. As a member of the Congressional Equality Caucus, Gottheimer is a leader in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality.

“I am honored to earn Human Rights Campaign’s endorsement and proud to fight alongside HRC and the LGBTQ+ community across New Jersey to make our nation a better, more equitable, and more open place for everyone,” said Congressman Gottheimer. “At a time when LGBTQ+ people and their rights are under constant attack from far-right extremists, it’s more important than ever that we keep fighting for a more equal future and never back down from combating bullying, hate, discrimination, and inequality wherever they are found.”

The Human Rights Campaign is America’s largest civil rights organization working to achieve equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people. HRC envisions a world where LGBTQ+ people are embraced as full members of society at home, at work and in every community.
