About This Campaign

Prop 1 is a ballot proposition in Anchorage’s municipal election on April 3rd. It is an effort by Alaska Family Council President and other anti-LGBTQ factions to repeal portions of Anchorage’s Non-Discrimination Ordinance (NDO) pertaining to transgender people and change how a person’s sex is defined for every municipal policy, procedure, and facility. This would bring back discrimination to transgender kids and adults Anchorage in schools, employment, housing and public spaces - including allowing strangers to demand to "check" someone's "sex at birth" before using restrooms or other public facilities.

Is This An LGBTQ+ Justice Issue?

YES!

Any time an anti-LGBTQ+ measure passes it emboldens our opposition to try it in other places and increases their chance of success. In Alaska specifically:

43% of transgender Alaskans have experienced homelessness - 23% in just the past year specifically for being transgender
In the past year, 44% of those who saw a health care provider were turned away, harassed, attacked, or experienced another form of discrimination because of being transgender.
Out of those who were out or perceived to be transgender in school, 85% were mistreated because of being transgender, such as being harassed, sexually or physically assaulted, or kicked out of school, and 24% experienced such severe mistreatment that they left a K–12 school.
