Worth noting that the Y-axis starts at 60% meaning even in the reddest of states 60% support non-discrimination which is a massive shift from even a decade ago.

I’m going to brag about Eli for a minute; I’m a childhood friend and he has done so much for the LGBTQ community in Utah. He has shared his personal experience growing up gay in the LDS church and it has opened so many people up to understanding different perspectives without coming across as preachy or condescending. Love you, Eli!

having escaped UT for WA, I'm shocked Utah rates higher. But the activism in SLC is top notch. I miss the 🏳️🌈 community there

I’m more interested in why RI is worse than South Dakota, Texas, etc…

I don't see anyone bringing attention to this but the y-axis scale starts at 60 so event the "worst" states have at least 60% support. Not saying states can't do better but more than half everywhere

I’m so convinced that republicans haven’t been the majority of Utah’s population for a long time now, but our legislators ignore the voters and the Mormon church has a chokehold on the state government

as someone from alabama i think it’s also age. utah is a young state, like population wise, and alabama is full of old people who quite literally never leave their homes and don’t speak to anyone who isn’t family

Completely agreed on building bridges - idk when we started gatekeeping social causes / “canceling” everyone on the other side when we should be extending a hand at every opportunity…

Not to mention the LDS Church, for all its conservative doctrines on the non-traditional family, has publicly supported several LGBTQ non-discrimination laws in the last decade or so. The members here don't seem as vitriolic as other conservatives.

Utah, imo, is a lot more blue-leaning (overall purple) than most people think imo. we are just gerrymandered to hell and back

Have you considered politics Eli? I know you are working hard as a change-maker. With your law background and your ability to bring people together, I think you’d be a great representative of the people.

This might be an unpopular opinion but for all the faults Utah has (and there are many), this place has some of the best people this world has to offer. Like, a high concentration of the most honest, hard working & sincerely good people.

As a Utahn, that actually surprises me (pleasantly!) how high UT is. I appreciate this video and hope that progress continues despite this last legislative session (looking at you, Trevor Lee)

My 74-year-old life long active LDS mother came to my gay wedding in Utah over the weekend. And smiled. And helped. And supported. It took years to come to this point, but person to person advocacy was everything.

I’m in TX (Utah native) and have been fascinated by how Utah is so much more tolerant and inclusive than TX and it makes me so proud of Utah.
