From Landau’s City & State bio:

If elected to Philadelphia City Council later this year, Rue Landau will be the first out LGBTQ+ City Councilmember to serve there. Landau, who just celebrated a landmark victory in the Democratic primary, has continually fought for social-justice issues throughout her career. She helped add protections and opportunities for marginalized communities as the executive director of the Philadelphia Commission on Human Relations and the Fair Housing Commission, and also helped low-income renters avoid eviction as an attorney at Community Legal Services.

From Bartlett’s City & State bio:

Chris Bartlett has served as the executive director of William Way LGBT Community Center in Philadelphia for more than a decade. Most recently, he established the center’s Arcila-Adams Trans Resource Center, which connects trans and gender-nonconforming communities to resources. Darius McLean works as the director of the center in addition to serving as the center’s acting COO. The resource center is named in honor of Charlene Arcila and Jaci Adams, two prominent HIV/AIDS activists from Philadelphia.
