“Based on what has happened this week, it should be an interesting discussion,” said Our Fund CEO/President Anthony Timiraos, referring to Tuesday’s election. Here’s the complete news release, with biographies of the 2014 speakers:

Less than one week after the 2014 mid-term elections, the future of marriage equality and other LGBT issues will be the focus of a panel of nationally-prominent figures from the LGBT and mainstream political realms. Our Fund will bring the elite group together at the Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale for the 4th Annual National LGBT Leadership Forum, slated for Monday, Nov. 10, from 5 to 7 p.m.
