Council’s LGBTQIA+ Caucus draws up 11-point ‘Pride in Policy’ platform 

The City Council’s LGBTQIA+ Caucus rolled out an 11-point policy platform outlining a host of proposals to protect queer and trans New Yorkers in the face of the incoming Trump administration.

Dubbed “Pride in Policy,” the detailed platform follows up on the LGBTQIA+ Caucus’ previous policy handbook, The Marsha and Sylvia Plan, which was unveiled during Pride Month in 2023. The new policy platform factors in the results of the 2024 election and emphasizes the potential roles of local and state governments to bolster the queer community across the five boroughs.
