Now is the time to fight for LGBT rights.

Change is in the air. Work with the Human Rights Campaign to repeal the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). DOMA discriminates against same-sex couples by denying them more than 1,100 federal rights and benefits like visiting sick partners in the hospital or filing federal taxes jointly. Work with the nation's largest LGBT civil rights group to restore these basic, civil rights to those who deserve them.

At the Fund for the Public Interest, we’ve been organizing campaigns to fight for gay rights, protect the environment and stand up for the public interest for more than 25 years. We helped build support to defeat the Federal Marriage Amendment; win the "Million Solar Roofs" initiative in California; and our grassroots outreach has helped convince 13 states to limit their carbon emissions.

You can work for change.

Join motivated staff here in Los Angeles working to make change happen. And you can make great friends and money along the way.
