Kristen Waggoner, The Woman Who Helped Overturn Roe v. Wade, Is Coming For LGBTQ Rights
December 1, 2024
Kristen Waggoner is the President and CEO of Alliance Defending Freedom, a Southern Poverty Law Center-designated anti-LGBTQIA+ hate group. Waggoner has had a long and impactful career which has involved bringing a baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple to the Supreme Court, advocating for so-called conversion therapy—and defending people who practice it, pushing (and pushing) the anti-LGBTQIA+ agenda on mainstream network news including ABC, CNN, Fox, and even daytime darling The View, and, most recently, fighting fierecely and staunchly against the rights of trans people to participate in sports, and to learn about ourselves in the classroom.
For Unclosted Media I put together the first in-depth look at Waggoner’s entire track record on LGBTQIA+ rights.
