The book posits that there exist distinct LGBTQ lobbying communities, one dominated by a mainstream gay lobbying category that promotes heteronormative ideals, and another that is intersectional and seeks to challenge hegemonic heterosexual institutions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe analysis in the book draws upon existing public policy literature and is further enriched by the author's extensive practitioner experience in lobbying for LGBTQ issues in Washington, D.C., over the past two decades. This book serves as an invaluable resource for students and researchers in LGBTQ studies, U.S. politics, and gender studies. It will also appeal to activists and professionals engaged in political lobbying, providing valuable insights and strategies for advocating for the rights and well-being of the LGBTQ community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, LGBTQ Lobbying in the United States is a groundbreaking work that challenges the dominant narrative of LGBTQ advocacy and offers a more inclusive and intersectional approach to promoting the rights and well-being of the LGBTQ community. By highlighting the need for diverse lobbying communities and challenging heteronormative institutions, this book contributes to a more equitable and inclusive society for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 356g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 154 x 234 x 17 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367772222\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Christopher L.Pepin-Neff","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103735771386,"sku":"9780367772222","price":39.02,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3b12cca517c47908342dda1f5edee9d7.jpg?v=1633056627","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/lgbtq-lobbying-in-the-united-states","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
