LGBT Trend Page

Welcome to the LGBT Trend Page for the 2015 American Values Atlas (AVA).

The 2015 AVA includes three questions about LGBT issues: attitudes on the legality of same-sex marriage, nondiscrimination laws for LGBT individuals, and service refusal for gay and lesbian people on religious grounds. Results are based on a weekly tracking poll conducted among a random sample of roughly 1,000 adults. The initial wave of interviews began the first week of May, and they will run each week through the end of the year.

This page will be updated the first week of each month with data from the previous four weeks, so please check back in to see updated trend lines across the year.
