READ PROS, CONS OF EQUALITY ACT
Delgado Votes In Favor
Of Debated Equality Act
Delgado
Today, Congressman Antonio Delgado, D-19, voted to pass H.R. 5, the Equality Act, to ensure that all LGBTQ Americans are granted the full protections guaranteed by federal civil rights law.
The Equality Act extends anti-discrimination protections not just in the workplace, but in every place – in employment, education, access to credit, jury service, federal funding, housing, and public accommodations.
“Our LGBTQ neighbors, friends, and family deserve access to the same rights and protections as every other American,” said Delgado.
