Action Alert: Contact Congress about ENDA

ENDA, the federal Employment Non-Discrimination Act, will protect people from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. As COLAGErs, we depend on our LGBTQ parents’ to financially provide for our families. While some states do provide legal protections, it is legal in many states to be fired from your job based on your sexual orientation or gender identity. We need ENDA, a law to protect all of our families from employment discrimination.
What YOU can do:
- Call your Senator and ask them to co-sponsor ENDA. Find your senator here.
- Visit the National Center for Transgender Equality’s website to Sign the Petition and Contact Congress.
- Share your family’s story of employment discrimination. Contact COLAGE Program Director Meredith Fenton.
- Email your friends and family asking them to contact Congress.
