Senator Merkley and Representative Takano led the bicameral reintroduction of the Equality Act, which would provide civil rights protections based on gender identity and sexual orientation. As LGBTQ+ Americans—particularly transgender people—remain under attack in the halls of government and in our communities, passing these protections has never been more important.
