Two years ago, Brandon Woodard made history when he became the first openly LGBTQ man elected to a Kansas state office. Running for re-election, he chatted with us about how he builds coalitions and makes change as a Democrat in Republican-controlled legislature. "I believe our representation matters. Once our colleagues in the House and Senate get to know us, it makes it harder to oppose equality for all Kansans, because members of the legislature are now making decisions that not only impact the people of their district, but also two of their co-workers. It is that very representation and relationship-building that allowed us to prevent extreme, anti-LGBTQ legislation from ever making it out of committee during our term. Additionally, it’s empowering to hear from young LGBTQ Kansans, who share their stories or their ideas for making Kansas a better place for all. I know that beyond representing the 23,000 folks in my district, I also have a responsibility to be a voice for the LGBTQ community.” Learn more about Brandon Woodard at BallotBreakers.com!
