Despite years of public service at the highest levels and two longtime stints as a Distinguished Fellow with the Heritage Foundation, Secretary Chao’s record on LGBTQ rights is virtually nonexistent. However, as the spouse of Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mc#POLITICSConnell, Chao has been called a “driving force” behind the highest ranking anti-LGBTQ member of the United State Senate.
The GLAAD Accountability Project catalogs anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and discriminatory actions of politicians, commentators, organization heads, religious leaders, and legal figures, who have used their platforms, influence and power to spread misinformation and harm LGBTQ people.
