Happy Birthday, Jim Kolbe! Celebrating the only man brave enough to advocate LGBTQ+ rights from within the Republican trenches and still keep everyone smiling. From courageously stepping into the spotlight as the first openly gay Republican congressman in 1996, you've enjoyed mastering bipartisan diplomacy—perhaps your greatest superpower!Your tireless efforts with Log Cabin Republicans have tirelessly paved pathways of inclusion, reminding us all that equality is fundamentally American, even when wearing an elephant-shaped pin. Jim, may this birthday bring you laughter and cake (no party affiliation required)—because staying fabulous transcends all politics! Enjoy your special day.
