2SLGBTQIA+ Rights - Jill Stein

[AnthonyAú]

Jill Stein - Presidential Platform
2SLGBTQIA+ Rights
A Jill Stein Administration will guarantee the human rights of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.

Violent attacks on transgender women (particularly Black and other transgender women of color), recent stripping of state protections, lack of legal protection after negative court rulings, and long-standing historical inequities continue. We will end the acceptance of a violent culture that devalues the humanity of our 2SLGBTQIA+ siblings. We will fight for the liberation of 2SLGBTQIA+ people around the world.

Here's how:

• Support the Equality Act, the PRIDE Act, the Every Child Deserves a Family Act, and other bills to prohibit discrimination by the U.S., the military, state or local governments, or private industry
  
• Support the PrEP Access and Coverage Act (until universal healthcare is implemented).
  
• Develop and implement 2SLGBTQIA+ inclusive public education to combat bullying
  
• Include 2SLGBTQIA+ history in school curricula, provide school and community trainings and 2SLGBTQIA+ specific school counseling
  
• Federally prohibit the harmful practice of "conversion therapy"
  
• Fund housing relief programs for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, who are disproportionately represented in unsheltered populations
  
• Remove punitive and cumbersome legal name change requirements and fees
  
• Declare trans murder and suicide rates a national emergency
  
• De-gender or add nonbinary gender options to all Federal public documents
  
• De-gender school dress codes, and guarantee protection from discrimination as a result of dress in workplaces
  
• Publish the original Equal Rights Amendment in the National Archives, effectively bringing it into law.
  
• Prohibit insurance companies from denying trans-affirming procedures
  
• Remove "transmedicalist" language from all educational materials relating to trans individuals
  
• Specifically prohibit disciplining or firing trans employees for acknowledging their gender/pronouns with customers, clients, or other individuals in the workplace
  
• Legally prohibit mutilative surgeries on intersex infants
  
• Pass legislation to mandate that police adopt policies to ensure fairer interactions with transgender people, especially transgender women of color, who are disproportionately impacted by disparities in policing
  
• Outlaw misgendered imprisonment nationwide and end "gay panic" and "trans panic" defenses for violent crimes
  
• Prevent and repeal any legislation that purports to protect religious liberty at the expense of the rights of others
