The #EqualityAct would positively impact the lives of millions of Americans by updating America's civil rights laws to fully and explicitly include protections on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. #Act4Equality at passtheequalityact.com/act.

83% of Americans support LGBTQ nondiscrimination protections, including 68% of conservatives. It’s time for the Senate to represent the majority and pass the #EqualityAct! passtheequalityact.com/act

Right now, more than 6.7 million LGBTQ Americans live in states without explicit nondiscrimination protections. This lack of protection is especially acute for LGBTQ people of color, transgender people, low-income LGBTQ people, and LGBTQ people in rural areas. #Act4Equality

Your zip code shouldn’t determine whether you can rent a home, visit your doctor, or shop for groceries free from discrimination. But that’s a reality for LGBTQ folks in 29 states. If you’ve been impacted by a lack of federal protections, share your story: transpocc.org/ea-story-proje…

In the year since the House passed the Equality Act, we’ve seen:
❌Trans kids refused healthcare & equal education
❌"Don't Say Gay" bills
❌Teachers encouraged to out kids to their parents
Young ppl are under attack. But we're ready to fight back actionnetwork.org/forms/join…

There's no time better than now to pass the #EqualityAct, which would add new comprehensive and explicit protections to federal law not only for #LGBTQ people but also women, people of color, and many other communities: lgbtmap.org/2021-equality-ac…

Equality for all shouldn’t be a fight. When we invest in equality, we invest in people, we invest in businesses and we invest in opportunities. #EqualityAct
