[[link removed]]Dear Friend,

The attacks from the Trump-Pence administration just keep coming.

Their latest proposed regulation out of the Department of Labor attempts to gut
protections for LGBTQ people, women and religious minorities by adding
unprecedented religious exemptions to a long standing executive order
prohibiting discrimination against the employees of federal contractors that
includes protections added by President Obama for sexual orientation and gender
identity.

Trump made headlines in his first month in office with a high profile promise to
keep this order “intact.” But now, he’s gone back on his word to the American
people and put workers at risk for discrimination nationwide.

We need to tell Trump that gutting equality is un-American. Join HRC right now
in calling on him and his administration to withdraw this harmful proposed
regulation.

Make no mistake here: This proposed regulation is a broad and sweeping effort to
implement a license to discriminate against people on the basis of their gender
identity and sexual orientation.

More specifically, this would affect the one in four Americans who currently
work for federal contractors. If this regulation becomes permanent, these
employees could see key enforcement of protections eviscerated in an instant. We’ll see our tax dollars at work, being used to discriminate.

That is unacceptable. And we cannot be silent.

We were a part of the fight for these key protections at the time the executive
order was issued … and we’re here now to do all we can to defend them. Please join us in this fight.
