JOhn,
I've written to you recently about the alarming rise of anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric that we're witnessing — particularly the demonization of trans people that's been platformed by Fox News and countless Republican politicians. It's important that we speak out and show that hate cannot and will not win.
One of the most effective ways to do that is by demonstrating the broad support that exists for policies that expand LGBTQ+ rights. So I am renewing my call for Congress to pass the Equality Act, which would ensure that sexual orientation and gender identity are covered under federal civil rights laws.
I was proud to co-sponsor this bill before, and I will not rest until it becomes law — no matter how long that takes. Will you add your name and help me get 7,500 citizen co-signers in support of the Equality Act? Together, we can send a powerful message that a strong majority in this country stands with the LGBTQ+ community and wants active measures taken to protect their rights and respect their dignity.

We've made a lot of progress this past decade for LGBTQ+ equality (which is why we're seeing such fierce pushback now from the far right), but we still have a long way to go.
Right now, Americans in a majority of states can be fired from their jobs, denied credit, or evicted from their homes just because of who they are and who they love.
Passing the Equality Act will advance fairness and justice, and it will improve the lives of millions of Americans. I'm under no illusions about the obstacles we face, but we have a moral imperative to keep the pressure on. The message we send now matters down the line — whether in two months or two years.
I'm proud to fight for my family and friends in the LGBTQ+ community. Please JOhn, join me and sign on to support the Equality Act →
