On Fri, Aug. 9, @Mauro4Texas announced his @GOP run for @USCongress #TX20. His club, The Pegasus, books drag performers from around the nation, we are calling for a nationwide boycott in an effort to defund his contributions to anti-LGBTQIA+ politicians/platforms. #ProtestThePeg

For anyone in #SanAntonio ready to make a statement and stand up to influences that promote the erasure of our struggles. #pegprotest #boycottpegasus

#SpiritDay is tomorrow Oct. 17th, 2019. Wear purple in solidarity with LGBTQIA+ youth. #lgbtq #LGBTQtakeover #LGBTQoftwitter #LGBTQIA #pegprotest

“The only thing getting me through this is my will to survive. My head is just above water... Any way you cut it⁠ — mentally, physically, emotionally⁠ — this is painful,” Sza Sza. Thank you @TheTinaVasquez for telling her story. #FreeSzaSza https://t.co/JbmogYPAM4

Today is International #PronounsDay. Stating your pronouns creates safe spaces for transgender & gender nonconforming people. If not, we continue to erase their existence.

[Advocates for Trans Equality @TransEquality]

Happy International #PronounsDay!

Reminder:
👉 You can't guess someone's pronouns based upon their appearance!

[Protest the Peg @PegProtest]

But @Mauro4Texas, a cisgay man, wants to stay busy attracting conservatives like @tedcruz so that he can benefit from proximity to power. He wants to run for #TX20. Our vote is for #LGBTQIA+ ally @JoaquinCastrotx. #LGBTQtakeover #LGBTQoftwitter

When @Mauro4Texas, gay owner of Pegasus Nightclub in #SanAntonio, has contributed to the rhetoric that causes the oppression, violence & death of our #transgender community. #pegprotest #boycottpegasus #translivesmatter #blackTRANSlivesmatter

[Protest the Peg @PegProtest]

In case you don’t know, we’ve got a gay owner, @Mauro4Texas, of an #LGBTQIA+ bar here in #SanAntonio that is running as a #republican who loves to attack the #transgender community. Crazy times we live in. #LGBTQtakeover #LGBTQoftwitter #LGBTQ #translivesmatter

[Protest the Peg @PegProtest]

Look, @Mauro4Texas, your friends are bailing on @realDonaldTrump. The ? is when are you going to pull your mouth away from his & their anti-LGBTQIA+ teets? #pegprotest

[The Advocate @TheAdvocateMag]

The Christian Broadcasting Network claims one million daily viewers, who Trump once referred to as "my people."

But the network's founder, Pat Robertson, just changed his tune on the president. https://t.co/ssFnBcAPSh

And to everyone that hasn’t been able to reach the point of liberation, we are here for you. We are fighting for you. ❤️#NationalComingOutDay #pegprotest

[Out Magazine @outmagazine]

On the #EqualityTownHall, @AshleeMPreston tells Out, "We get a call into a room for the appearance of being inclusive. We’re not leading the dialogue and having our specific issues examined closely." https://t.co/JKCgHSYEbr

Best read tonight! #EqualityTownHall

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

How would I respond to someone who says marriage is between one man and one woman? #EqualityTownHall

[Zack Ford @ZackFord]

YES YES YES! @JulianCastro discusses the importance of STUDIES to assess whether LGBTQ are actually being discriminated against and holding people accountable! #EqualityTownHall

[Out Magazine @outmagazine]

Framing this as hanging out with someone with different opinions, Ellen DeGeneres missed the point entirely. https://t.co/4h3sfmAeSK

[GLAAD @glaad]

@TomSteyer "This is a straight forward attack on humanity itself." @TomSteyer on the murders of Black transgender women. #EqualityTownHall

[Steven Canals @StevenCanals]

I’m tired of hearing people defend “kindness.” If respectability politics (and class solidarity) is what we stand for as an LGBTQ+ community I’m not sure that uprising would have happened 50 years ago at Stonewall. This isn’t about differing opinions, it’s about liberation. ✊🏽

[LGBTQ Nation @lgbtqnation]

.@JulianCastro is always one of the most dignified and thoughtful guys in any room. His replies tonight at #EqualityTownHall showed the same poise and he was able to get into the details with some of his answers. Grade: B+

[Protest the Peg @PegProtest]

@PowWowVip @AshleeMPreston @inafried Reading comprehension is fundamental.

[Protest the Peg @PegProtest]

.@JulianCastro says that it is a common myth to say that being #LGBTQIA+ is separate from being religious. #EqualityTownHall

[Latino Victory @latinovictoryus]

“I will make sure my administration...is inclusive & that we listen to...transgender individuals who are the ones experiencing both the challenges & the opportunities that are created because of the policies passed in Washington.”
— @JulianCastro

[Protest the Peg @PegProtest]

.@JulianCastro’s first day in office would include reversing efforts made by @realDonaldTrump’s administration to pass religious exemptions against #Lgbtqia rights. #EqualityTownHall
