State of Pride Report

California Attorney General Rob Bonta is proud to present the fourth annual State of Pride Report, which highlights the California Department of Justice (DOJ)’s work to protect and empower the rights of the LGBTQ+ community, in California and nationwide.

This Pride Month and every month, I remain committed to serving as a staunch ally and advocate for the LGBTQ+ community,” said Attorney General Rob Bonta. “While Pride Month is a time to celebrate the history of the LGBTQ+ rights movement and the progress we have made, hateful attacks against LGBTQ+ individuals continue to occur nationwide — even here in California. The California Department of Justice will not stand idly by in the face of attacks on LGBTQ+ Americans’ freedoms to express themselves, receive crucial health care, and be included in their communities without facing unfair roadblocks. As California Attorney General, I will use all the tools at my disposal to push back against hate and discrimination. In solidarity with our LGBTQ+ community, I will continue to fight for justice, to promote equality, and build communities where all Americans can safely live and prosper as their authentic selves.

DOJ is proud to honor the history, achievements, and strength of the LGBTQ+ community. DOJ is committed to fighting alongside LGBTQ+ communities to secure safe, welcoming environments where all individuals can prosper and be treated fairly, regardless of how they identify. DOJ will continue to act as an ally to the LGBTQ+ community by combating threats to LGBTQ+ Americans’ well-being and advancing LGBTQ+ individuals’ rights.
