The House has passed the Equality Act, which would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act to protect people from being discriminated based on sexual orientation and gender identity in employment, housing and other services as well as access to public accommodations such as restaurants.
The final vote was 224-206. Three Republicans joined Democrats in voting for the bill. Reps. John Katko, Tom Reed, and Brian Fitzpatrick voted with Democrats on this vote, and did so when the legislation passed in the House in 2019 as well. When the bill passed the House floor in 2019, eight Republicans joined Democrats to vote for the legislation.

In 1988, I attended my freshman orientation in college. With parents and students in attendance, the dean proudly stated that the university was the last one to still have separate dormitories for men and women. Every mom stood up and applauded!!!
No more racist cops on the streets. They ought to be respectful towards others or else.
Equality Act is no help in protecting people from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
That Makes God Happy...
ABORTION: No moral person cheers. Until it can be empirically determined when fetus becomes human soul (even theologians disagree), state/public sector has no compelling interest to interfere with painful, SACRED decision involving woman/doctor/family - thus private sector issue.
ABORTION: Fight via private sector: educate, adopt, etc. - don't impose mere beliefs on pluralistic public sector: backfires on your cause. GOP says 'limit gov.' yet shoves gov. to suppress women - no wonder: their own women often suppressed by erroneous Biblical interpretation.
NO RESTING ON LAURELS! We must fight the 'good fight' even more now after our POTUS/Senate win. Strike iron while hot: DIVIDE GOP. Fake Christian Religious-right - 90% white - gave united GOP 'moral authority': a must for all movements. While they flail - take moral high ground!
This will do NOTHING to change the plight of Trannies and Homos etc in society. Our government cannot legislate Morality My God tells me what is Right and Wrong and to recognize anyone as anything other than how they were born is wrong
The religious-right seeks to rule YOU. More imminent threat than Neoliberalism/Oligarchy/Plutocracy: their MALIGNANT MYTHOS underlies latter. REAL Christians/all faiths strike IRON while hot: DIVIDE GOP - stop theocracy cancer. No post-election rest: build 2022 blue wave stat!
IMPOTENT WHITE EVANGELICALS: 'Called' to holy might, yet feared Love's spiritual street fight. For shame! Fled to hate's gated RELIGIOUS-RIGHT, now their 'Satan' finds them his delight. Flee the Right to right side of history: repent (turn 180) to the SPIRITUAL-LEFT. (2 Co. 6:17)
'LIVE BY SWORD, DIE BY SWORD' (Jesus). Trump/GOP terrorists who live/intimidate by guns beware: gotta guess which of us 'snowflakes' is armed to defend our families/democracy. 'Weapons of our warfare not carnal, but mighty before God': love in action. YET carnal DEFENSE BLESSED
YO, religious-right bigots! 'Say not, 'we have Jesus for our Savior', for of these stones God's able to raise up disciples unto Jesus'(Matt.3:9 LMAO version). Rather, Universe speaks to all: 'Our Beloved reveals to mortals what is required: justice, mercy, humility'(Micah 6:8).
HEY! FELLOW PASSIVE CHRISTIAN RACISTS: I too was blind, then challenged & defensive - even had POC friends. Couldn't believe unconscious white superiority within. Most RELIGIOUS-RIGHT ppl at least passive RACISTS. Join ANTI-RACIST causes - or dismiss & be Luke11:23 - 'against Me'
The onus is on the dominating race in society to call out social injustice imposed upon minorities. People of all faith traditions must actively take stands against white nationalism/supremacy. FAKE Christians - religious-right - fear 'foriegn' faiths. Real Love ='Feed my sheep'.
GAYS TO THE FUTURE WITH JESUS: religious-right bigots claim Jesus condemns homosex & 2k years ago gave ALL humanity only manual for eternal life. His 'omnicient' GAZE INTO FUTURE: OMG gays galore & abortion as never before! Alas, Jesus ignored - but damn he busted Bible bigots!
Couple of weeks ago I came across a recommendation about Johnteddy63 wealth how he helped investors to earn lots of money with their investments. and I decided to give a trial with the little I have. Now my little has turned into something great which was not my expectation

And you get equal protection. And YOU get equal protection. And you, and you, and you get protection. Finally making progress. That took about a month with Democrats in control of Congress. Don’t give republicans a chance to stand in the way. Elect Democrats to Congress.
The Death of Female Athletics Act.
Politicians make life more complicated, for political gains! They have failed to protect current people with specific personal traits, letting rampant discrimination occurrence. Yet, they are now creating more divisions and then encourage more discrimination.
Pee at home if you are worried or use a porter potty🤷🏽♀️
How do you protect against SEXual orientation when you conflate sex with gender identity. SMH. Sex is an immutable biological reality with real world consequences especially in the area of health.
Prepare for another kind of act. ~ God
Don't care
ABOUT FUC&$NG TIME!!!WTF
ABOUT 👏 FUCKING 👏 TIME 👏
What about civil rights act 1983? Later than '64 Sounds like a consent decree to act human
Scribe_Light Wonderful. And here i thought sexual orientation and gender identity got added to that act years ago. Guess I was wrong. Gunna be interesting to watch all those people discriminating against cis hetero men get in trouble since hetero is an orientation and cis male is a gender

Big state of emergency as corona virus rises again drastically.... Just now. View
This shit should hav been done a long time ago... it took til the 21st century for us black people to start receiving acknowledgement... fuck y’all ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
We had to pass a bill to treat everyone equally?
'Critics argue it raises serious concerns for religious communities. Republicans point to a provision in the legislation saying an individual could not be denied access to a restroom, locker room or dressing room based on their gender identity.' Republicans hella annoying 🙄🙄
This really promotes and encourages people to be gay. This is stupid.😁
I will only celebrate when the Senate passes it. I can't let my hopes get up for another chance of equality.
My only worry is that this will result in a tug of war between parties. The Dems will pass something, only to have the GOP nuke it when they hold the majority. Back and forth, back and forth.
Hahaha!!! Take that mtgreenee

As it should be. 🙏🏼✝️

Wonderful, we can now expect to see men walking in women's restrooms. That's great! Wth

Antifa launch a terror attack on an ICE building in Portland. Zero news coverage. Zero interest. Imagine if Trump supporters launch an attack like this on a migrant centre? 😡🇺🇸 Would like to know. Two ways to get home need details.

How to tell that you're a bigot and asshole: this law bother you on any level.
Cue conservative wailing about the dangers of respecting people and treating them with dignity
Well, this is the end of America and women's sports.
Lol
It will get filibustered. But as long as the Dems hold out it should pass hopefully
If you are offended by this, you are what is wrong with America, just move to russia already.
I'm very happy we are finally starting to live up to the words 'All men (humans) are created equal.'
WOOOOO YEAHH THATS WHAT WE LIKE TO SEE BAYBEEEE
Thank you. EqualityAct
