Joe Biden on Thursday doubled down on his commitment to LGBTQ rights, including his support for the Equality Act, in a message to the Human Rights Campaign, the country's largest LGBTQ rights group.

Biden went on to say, "America is at a turning point: "This election is going to determine our future for a very long time." Accusing Trump of trying to roll back protections for the LGBTQ community, Biden promised to be a staunch ally.

"You deserve a partner in the White House to fight with conviction and win the battles ahead," he said. "Together we'll pass the Equality Act, protect LGBTQ youth, expand access to health care, support LGBTQ workers and recommit to ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2025."

Biden has made LGBTQ rights a significant part of his presidential campaign from the beginning.

Ron: When Vice President, Biden spoke out for same sex marriage even before Obama who quickly agreed. If anyone can find support for gay people from the current president, we will gladly post it here. (For the full Biden speech, Click Here.)
