Thank you Mayor Muriel Bowser (@MayorBowser), Chief of Police Peter Newsham, (@ChiefNewsham), and Sgt. Jessica Hawkins, of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Liaison Unit (LGBTLU) | mpdc for being present, protecting us, and reaffirming Washington, DC’s commitment and existence as the most protective of human rights in the United States. It’s why we came here.
