Nearly one in three violent hate crimes in the state are assaults on LGBT Floridians. With the recent murder of an LGBT 17 year-old in Broward and the brutal attack on a gay couple just a few mile away, we must take action.

Ask Governor Crist and Attorney General McCollum to stop their silence around anti-LGBT hate crimes and speak out. Only when our state leadership condemns these actions, can we begin to heal the hate.
