Times are changing and so are we.
We've partnered with Cullen Tomsheck to redesign GLASS' branding. Our new logo includes the traditional rainbow colors, along with the Black and Brown stripes and Trans Flag to be more inclusive of the communities we represent and the voices we hope to lift in the U.S. Senate.
Black Americans and people of color have been taken for granted and ignored. From unequal treatment by law enforcement, rampant voter suppression and inequities in employment, health care and education, there is much more work to do in the fight for racial equality, equity and justice.
We're committed to taking proactive steps in ensuring the U.S. Senate is a safe, welcoming environment for all, especially for people of color and the LGBTQ community.

🏳️🌈 FIVE YEARS OF MARRIAGE EQUALITY
|
|
Five years ago today, the Supreme Court ruled that same-sex couples had the fundamental right to marry under our Constitution.
And just last week, the Supreme Court declared that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects LGBTQ people from employment discrimination. By far, this has been the largest victory the trans community has had before the Supreme Court, and one of the first times the Court has recognized legal protections for trans people.
No matter how small, every step forward matters - "sometimes small gestures can have unexpected consequences."
Let's keep up the good fight and make every gesture count.
#LoveWins.
What do marriage equality and LGBTQ employment protections mean to you?
