Retailer American Apparel is selling "Make America Gay Again" and "Make America LGBTQ Again" t-shirts.
The slogans are clearly inspired by Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" hat.
Thirty percent of American Apparel's sales of the shirts will go to support efforts to pass the Equality Act, a federal bill introduced last year that would prohibit discrimination in several key areas based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) will also sell the shirts at its online store.
HRC and The Ally Coalition (TAC) are partners in the campaign.
"We are excited about our partnership with The Ally Coalition and American Apparel, which empowers people to subvert the politics of hate and division by creatively speaking out for the equal rights and dignity of LGBTQ people," said Olivia Alair Dalton, senior vice president of communications and marketing at HRC.
According to HRC, the #MakeAmericaGayAgain, #MakeAmericanLGBTQAgain campaign will "share personal stories and videos to educate audiences about LGBTQ equality and work to increase acceptance."
