Along with its warning on Tuesday, the HRC released a guidebook with summaries of laws in each state, "know your rights" information and resources for LGBTQ+ travelers as well as those already living in so-called hostile states.

Desperately trying to get my ass out of the south right now. Been working on it for almost a year. I was about at the point where I was going to just load up my car and drive until I hit a blue state, and figure out the rest later. Better to be a refugee now, before the brownshirts start bringing out the bloodhounds.

Fortunately, I think I have something lined up now (tentatively), but god damn it's terrifying down here.

Also, Michigan is a great state to move to if you have the option. We have great progressive leadership and the governor wants more residents.

How's the job market there, especially for IT jobs? I'm looking for remote stuff so that I could move anywhere but it seems like the whole IT sector is suffering at the moment so I'm also looking at in-person or hybrid jobs.

I can’t say for certain as it’s been 5+ years since I was looking for a job in the market, but according to Indeed there are quite a few. Remote is hard to get though.
