The LGBTQ Victory Fund rolled out new endorsements of congressional candidates, among them CD2 Democratic primary candidate Will Cunningham.

“We need more members of Congress who understand the experiences and struggles of the people they represent. As an openly LGBTQ Black man who grew up in poverty and experienced homelessness, Will Cunningham will bring a unique perspective to the issues facing our nation and ensure underserved communities are not forgotten. If Will wins his primary on Tuesday, America will have the opportunity to elect three openly LGBTQ Black members of Congress in November – and that would be transformative,” said Mayor Annise Parker, the CEO and President of the Fund.
