Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Basic Rights Oregon.The short explanation of this alert was: In 31 states, it's still legal to fire someone because they're gay; in 39 states it is legal to fire someone for being transgender.
Thousands of hardworking GLBT Americans have lost their livelihoods simply because of who they are. The Human Rights Campaign, The Task Force and state and national gay and non-gay organizations are working together to end this bitter injustice by passing the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), a federal bill that would make it illegal to fire, refuse to hire, or refuse to promote employees simply based on sexual orientation or gender identity. Our momentum for this historic legislation is building on Capitol Hill. But the radical right is flooding lawmakers with lies and misinformation about ENDA. You can set the facts straight. Send your lawmakers a message today. Make sure they know passing ENDA is the American thing to do! Make sure lawmakers know passing ENDA is important to you personaly. The Equality Federation thanks the Human Rights Campaign, HRC, for permission to use content from their action alert center to create this campaign.If you would like to view details on this alert, please visit here. |
