GREAT news to kick off the week, friend.
The Supreme Court just ruled that under federal law, employers can no longer fire or discriminate against workers for being LGBTQ.
It’s hard to understate how big this is in the fight for equality. Yesterday, it was legal to fire employees for being LGBTQ in 27 states. Under today’s landmark ruling -- it’s now illegal in all 50.
This is an historic win, but there’s still a lot of work to do:
Last week, the Trump Administration revoked nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ people in health care and health insurance. This ruling doesn't change that. But, the Equality Act -- which is still sitting on Mitch McConnell’s desk -- would put an end to all LGBTQ discrimination.
We need to continue our work, and one big way to do that is by electing the most LGTBQ Congress in history. And that starts in CA-53 by electing Georgette Gómez.
Tonight is our mid-month deadline and we’re falling short of our goal. Can we count on you to contribute $3 to elect Georgette so we can make history for LGTBQ equality?
Thanks for your support!
Team Gómez
Georgette Gómez is the first LGBTQ Latina elected San Diego City Council President. Now, she's running for Congress to stand up to Trump’s dangerous agenda and recenter our focus on working families in our community. Will you pitch now to help her continue fighting for us?
