The mission of American Unity Fund, a 501(c)(4) non-profit organization, is freedom. We are dedicated to advancing the cause of freedom for LGBT Americans by making the conservative case that freedom truly means freedom for everyone. Republicans believe strongly in the American Dream. Too often government serves as an obstacle to prosperity for millions of Americans – confiscating their wealth with escalating taxes, strangling their businesses with burdensome regulations and undermining our economy with unsustainable spending and increasing uncertainty. For Americans who happen to be LGBT, it goes one step farther, denying them the same rights and responsibilities extended to every other taxpaying family. We believe the American Dream belongs to all of us, regardless of our sexual orientation or gender identity.
Washington, D.C. - October 20, 2015-
American Unity Fund, the 501(c)(4) non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the cause of freedom for LGBT Americans,
announced it will continue the effort to reform the national Republican Party platform on marriage originally launched by Young Conservatives for the Freedom to Marry. The $1 million Platform Reform campaign aims to strike five different anti-gay sections of the Republican Party platform and replace them with more inclusive and welcoming language to reflect the differing views on marriage within the Party.
"I want to applaud Pennsylvania Competes and the coalition of businesses, universities and local advocates that have signed on to support a bipartisan effort to pass nondiscrimination legislation that would protect LGBT citizens from discrimination in the workplace and in their daily lives," said Tyler Deaton, Senior Advisor to
American Unity Fund.
