I am proud to announce that the House passed the Global Respect Act, a bill I co-sponsored that denies visas to those who commit human rights abuses against LGTBQ+ people, sanctioning individuals and nations who commit these abuses.

 

This is a step forward in protecting the rights of the LGBTQ+ community around the world. It ensures that America is not a safe haven for those who violate the human rights of individuals because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

 

For far too long, state-sanctioned violence around the world has targeted members of the LGBTQ+ community without any repercussions. This bill will help bring some justice to these horrific acts by banning offenders from entering our country, gathering data on anti-LGBTQ crimes, and holding violators accountable.

 

This piece of legislation ensures that our fight for justice includes protecting victims of violence and persecution around the world and demonstrates solidarity with our LGBTQ+ family everywhere. If you support the Global Respect Act, will you sign my petition today and tell the LGBTQ+ community you have their back?
