Sad News Today:
We thank Congressman Barney Frank for all that he was able to accomplish for the LGBTQ+ Community. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎

Barney Frank, a pioneering gay politician who helped change the landscape for LGBTQ+ representation in America, has died at age 86.

Frank became the first gay member of Congress to come out voluntarily when he publicly declared his s*xual orientation in 1987.

"Prejudice is based on ignorance," Frank told The Boston Globe in 2011. "And the best way to counterbalance it is with a living example, with reality."

In 2012, at age 72, Frank married Jim Ready and became the first sitting member of Congress to wed someone of the same s*x.

He insisted his male partner be invited to all events where other representatives' spouses were welcome, normalising same-s*x relationships in the halls of power.

Frank died on Tuesday at his home in Maine after entering hospice care with congestive heart failure.
