No one should be mistreated or discriminated against because of who they love or the gender with which they identify. I proudly support passing the Equality Act and any other efforts to achieve equal protection under the law for members of the LGBTQ+ community.
To their shame, Republicans in Florida passed the “Don’t Say Gay” Act. It is an abhorrent piece of legislation attacking the LGBTQ+ community. And if Republicans are able to take over the House, they will no doubt attempt to pass this type of legislation on a federal level.
The trans community—and especially trans youth—have been singled out by attacks from all over the country. We must defend those who are most vulnerable and fight back voraciously as Republican lawmakers attempt to win votes by targeting this community.
