HRC and PSB Research Release Data on the Economic Impact of COVID-19 on the LGBTQ Community

By Elizabeth Bibi

Today, HRC Foundation  released new data outlining the economic impact of COVID-19 on the LGBTQ community. The research, released in partnership with PSB Research, shows that LGBTQ people are more likely to have experienced a cut in work hours, are more likely to feel their personal finances are in worse shape due to the pandemic, and are more likely to be taking steps to actively prepare for the virus.  They are also more likely to trust public health officials and are less likely to trust President Trump’s leadership.
