Friend,

A few short weeks ago, the Trump administration proposed a new rule that would allow government contractors to use any religious litmus test they want to discriminate in employment.

The Department of Labor is now collecting public comments on this rule – both for and against it – until September 16th. This is your chance to voice your opinion to the government directly.

Please click here to submit your comment opposing this rule right now.

HOW IT WORKS:

1. Our advocacy team has drafted a comment that you can edit and expand in your own personal voice. Read it here.

2. Submit your comment with one click and it will be automatically delivered to the DOL.

3. Once the DOL reviews your comment, it will be published in the public record – and it could impact the final rule, potentially limiting this proposed discrimination.

It was only yesterday that we celebrated the American labor movement, which led the charge against employment discrimination. The Department of Labor is supposed to be our ally in that fight. Instead, it is attempting to sanction discrimination in the name of religion.

LGBTQ people, single mothers, and anyone who doesn’t share their employer’s religious beliefs would be at risk of losing their government jobs or not getting hired for a government job if this rule goes through.

The September 16 deadline is just two weeks away, friend. If you want to see this proposed rule defeated, the time to act is now.

Thanks for making your voice heard,
