Court Victory! $6.2 Million Restored in Lambda Legal’s Big Win for LGBTQ+ & HIV Orgs – July 21, 2025

This week on Queer News:  Anna discusses Court Victory! $6.2 Million Restored in Lambda Legal’s Big Win for LGBTQ+ & HIV Orgs.


Family, this is your favorite queer radio personality Anna DeShawn and you’re listening to Queer News, your weekly pod where race & sexuality meet politics, culture, and entertainment. Only on E3 Radio. This week, I’m coming to you with a heart full of gratitude and a story full of hope. Amidst a chaotic week caring for my family, a bright moment stopped me in my tracks: Lambda Legal won a massive legal victory that restored $6.2 million in funding to LGBTQ+ and HIV organizations. I knew we had to talk about it. So I sat down with Jose Abrigo, Lambda’s HIV Project Director, to break it all down. Because even when the world feels heavy, there’s still good news worth celebrating.
