Happy Pride San Diego!
Each
Pride Month, we have a lot to celebrate in San Diego. Our city has historically
been a leader in LGBT rights and has helped
our region and state advance equality for all. This weekend celebrates both the victories of our LGBT community, and unites us in the fights yet to be won.
Click here to watch a Pride Month message from Rep.
Peters.
Discrimination has no place in nation as great as ours. That’s why Congress should pass the Equality Act, which would amend the Civil Rights Act to include protections for LGBT Americans. As your representative, I would like to know where you stand. Share your thoughts and join my email updates:
Should Congress pass the Equality Act
and guarantee LGBT individuals the non-discrimination protections already
granted to every other American?
Yes.
No.
I'm not sure.
As part of the LGBT Equality
Caucus, I’m fighting to ensure no one faces discrimination or harassment
because of who they are or who they love; that no brave, qualified American who
wants to enlist in our military is turned away because of their gender
identity; and that the personal convictions of a store or business don’t
supersede the civil rights of LGBT customers.
Until then, I know our LGBT community and their
allies will show strength in the face of hate and determination in the fight
for justice and equality for all.
Have a safe and happy Pride Weekend!
