Emergency legislation

In early March, the state’s House of Representatives voted in support of emergency legislation in response to “President Donald J. Trump’s crackdown on undocumented immigrants and LGBTQ services, including gender-affirming care.”

“We want to send a message that we support these organizations,” House Speaker Matt Ritter told the CT Mirror. “We support the individuals and the families that utilize these organizations, and we want to show that the government of Connecticut has a very different opinion on how we treat people with respect and dignity.”

A GOP amendment to the bill aimed at banning transgender athletes from women’s sports failed 89-49. The bill passed the Senate and was signed into law by Governor Ned Lamont on March 12.

True Colors Conference

Chasten Buttigieg — educator, LGBTQ+ advocate, author and husband of former mayor, presidential candidate and former US Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, delivered the opening remarks at the 2025 national True Colors SOGIEcon (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Expression) conference, held at UConn Storrs campus.

The speaker lineup also included Celeste Lescene, cofounder of The Trevor Project; Emmy-nominated producer and former NYC Pride leader David Correa; and singer, comedian and human rights activist Jade Esteban Estrada. Singer Adam Lambert delivered a message via video. 

With over 200 workshops, panels, performances and activities, and drawing more than 2,000 participants, the two-day conference is sponsored by The Health Collective. 

“At a time when LGBTQIA+ youth, their families and the professionals who support them face unprecedented challenges, this conference serves as a powerful reminder that they are valued, supported and never alone,” said Health Collective Executive Director David Grant in a press release.

“Our hope is that this event not only empowers and educates but also fosters lasting community — providing an affirming environment where people can celebrate who they are.”
