Team -

Arkansas just passed a law prohibiting doctors from providing
gender-affirming medical care to transgender youth in the state.
And while Governor Asa Hutchinson originally vetoed the bill, the
Republican-held state legislature overrode the veto the next day.

We need the Senate to pass the Equality Act and make clear that
there is no place for discrimination against people based on
their sexual orientation or gender identity.

For me, it's simple: Everyone in this country has the right to
be exactly who they are. If you're with me, can I count on you to
chip in to support our campaign and join the fight for equality
for all?

I re-introduced the Equality Act to finally prohibit
discrimination on the basis of sex, gender identity, and sexual
orientation to all Americans.

Federal law still does not expressly prohibit discrimination
based on gender identity or sexual orientation. And that loophole
allows right-wing groups to use claims of religious freedom to
deny services, opportunity, or care to LGBTQIA+ citizens and
Republican majorities to pass dangerous legislation denying basic
rights to those living and working in their state.

The Equality Act would make it clear once and for all that
transgender workers are protected and prevent employers from
firing or refusing hire to transgender people. It would
explicitly prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender
identity in any health insurance that involves federal funds. It
would add explicit protections from discrimination based on
sexual orientation and gender identity in housing and education.
And so much more...

There are tangible things we can do in government to further the
fight for LGBTQIA+ rights and I am ready to fight tooth and nail
to make sure we don't stop until we have true equality for all.

But I'll need your support to go up against the right-wing
disinformation machine that is set on pumping out "culture
war"-fueling stories about trans youth in sports instead of basic
facts about these kids' right to affirming care. Chip in here if
you're able.

Let's win this. Let's continue fighting for equality.
