John,
Under current Virginia law, transgender people still don't have
explicit protections against discrimination when trying to find new
employment, housing, and even in public spaces. This means that they
face being fired, evicted, or denied service in restaurants and
stores, simply because of who they are. This is completely
unacceptable, especially as we embark on a new decade in our
country's history.
This archaic policy is also in place in 29 other states in the U.S. We
stand with our allies today to announce our intent to push for
statewide LGBTQ nondiscrimination protections. We call on state
lawmakers to pass bipartisan, common-sense laws to protect transgender
Virginians from discrimination in their daily lives.
Follow along on Facebook and Twitter at 2:30 PM EST tomorrow,
December 19 to hear me and and our coalition partners speak about how
we'll pass this landmark legislation and share your support for
our community.
