We can’t go back

[Adam Schiff for Senate]( {NAME} — We are facing the most coordinated, sustained backlash against LGBTQ equality in our lifetimes. This year alone, more than 500 anti-LGBTQ bills have been filed in state legislatures across the nation. These continued restrictions and acts of hate against the LGBTQ community — especially toward students, parents, and teachers — are cruel. Everyone deserves to feel safe and be safe regardless of who they love or how they identify. The coordinated legislative maneuvers and outright violent attacks to threaten and intimidate transgender children and their parents in particular are unconscionable. We will not go back — we will not apologize for celebrating the strength and diversity of our LGBTQ community. It may seem unbelievable, but currently, the 1964 Civil Rights Act does NOT explicitly prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. That’s unacceptable, and it’s why we must fight like hell to defend the LGBTQ community from violence, intimidation, and outright discrimination no matter what. I'm an original cosponsor of the Equality Act to amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act and establish clear protections against this form of discrimination. And in the Senate, I'll vote to abolish the filibuster so we can pass it with a simple majority once and for all. [{NAME}, add your name to my petition and urge Congress to pass the Equality Act. We won’t go back, and we will fight like hell to defend the LGBTQ community from violence, intimidation, and outright discrimination no matter what.]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( This is a matter of principle. This Pride Month, it is each of our responsibility to stand with our LGTBQ community and keep moving forward until we have achieved the true equality that is the birthright of every person in our country.
