The William Way LGBT Community Center hosted Philly's 10 mayoral candidates, in a unique opportunity to speak directly to the city's queer community about their priorities and concerns on Monday, Jan. 23rd. 

After each candidate offered a 2-minute pitch, the event turned into a makeshift meet-and-greet, and attendees spoke individually to the nominees. 

AL DÍA asked five of the candidates present what they believed to be the most pressing issue for Philly's LGBT+ community. Check out their responses.
