New article out with @MackenzieDobso2 ! We show that 1) LGBTQ state legislators are much more effective policymakers than non-LGBTQ legislators and 2) that this effect is explained by voter discrimination experienced by LGBTQ candidates.

LGBTQ+ voters already leaned Democratic in 2020, but those with high linked fate were 3 percentage points more likely to vote for Biden 6/n
