Tell Your Representative: Help Educators Teach LGBTQI+ Inclusive History! The LGBTQI+ and Women's History Education Act (H.R. 4273) directs the Smithsonian National Museum of American History to develop and disseminate resources and programming for educators to teach LGBTQI+ and women's history in an inclusive and intersectional way.
Tell Congress: Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in Schools! We need every Member of Congress who supports equal educational opportunity and believes that schools must be free from transphobia, homophobia, racism, and all forms of bigotry and discrimination to rise up and say so by supporting GLSEN’s Rise Up Resolution (H. 256 / S. 134) as a cosponsor.
Tell Congress: It's Time to Pass the Equality Act! The Equality Act (S. 5 / H.R. 15) will write nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQI+ youth, families, and educators into federal law, cementing protections affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court in Bostock vs. Clayton County and by the Biden Administration. Tell Congress to end discrimination against all LGBTQ+ youth in schools and beyond.
Tell Congress to Pass the LGBTQI+ Data Inclusion Act! The LGBTQI+ Data Inclusion Act (H.R.3970 / S.1839), will ensure that federal agencies allow the people taking their surveys to self-report their sexual orientation and gender identity. LGBTQI+ data inclusion should be the norm–not the exception.
