On the Emmys red carpet, actress Laverne Cox used a clutch bag to draw attention to an upcoming Supreme Court ruling about discrimination based on transgender status

Washington Actress Laverne Cox on Sunday used her time on the 2019 Emmys red carpet to discuss an upcoming Supreme Court case that will decide whether federal employment law that bans discrimination based on sex does the same based on transgender status.

"When I got my Emmy nomination this year, my third one, I was like this is weird. I thought, there has to be a bigger reason and I thought, OK, maybe it's about this case and maybe its about raising awareness so that everyone knows our lives are in danger," Cox told E! News on the red carpet.

This is way I no longer watch awards shows, no longer entertainment just political.

Quien está representando y luchando en la alfombra roja por crear conciencia y darles mejores condiciones a los veteranos de guerra, los maestros, bomberos, policías, soldados y los que Trabajan arduamente en nuestra nación 😳....🧐🧐🧐🤔🤔🤔🤔

Transgender population is like .004% in America. There's not enough trans, tranny's, freaks of nature, or whatever you want to label them for them to be discriminate against. I'm sure the Supreme Court has more pressing issues to deal with them this STUPID ISSUE

These are people that really just read what they are told to do....why do we celebrate them? Scientist and educators deserve more praise.

Mentally ill people running around in Hollywood searching for relevance!

I knew transgendered people existed but I never expected democrat's would get desperate enough to exploit them.
