Transgender Rights are not a partisan issue.
We need you to act NOW to win GENDA this year!
The Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act (GENDA) (A.5710/Gottfried)(S.2406/Duane) is a bill that would outlaw discrimination in New York State based on gender identity and/or expression. Currently it is legal in New York to be fired from your job, kicked out of your home or be denied credit or public accommodations (like service in a restaurant) simply for being transgender.
GENDA has already passed the State Assembly this session. The 2nd Statewide GENDA Call-In Day is our community’s next unified effort to push this necessary bill onto the Senate floor for a vote. Sign up and we’ll let you know when you need to call your Senator to let them know that we need them to act immediately and bring this bill to a vote in the Senate.
