  • March 12, 2017 Dear President Emmert & NCAA Governance: On
    March 12, 2017 Dear President Emmert & NCAA Governance: On behalf of the undersigned, the Human Rights Campaign and Athlete Ally strongly encourage the NCAA to reaffirm its commitment to operating championships and events that are safe, healthy, and free from discrimination; and are held in sites where the dignity of everyone involved -- from athletes and coaches, to students and workers -- is assured. The NCAA has already demonstrated its commitment to ensuring safe and inclusive events. In response to state legislatures passing laws targeting LGBTQ people, the NCAA required that bidders seeking to host tournaments or events demonstrate how they will ensure the safety of all participants and spectators, and protect them from discrimination. Based on the new guidelines, the NCAA relocated events scheduled to be held in North Carolina due to the state’s discriminatory HB2 law. We commend these previous actions. With the next round of site selections underway, we urge the NCAA to reaffirm these previous commitments to nondiscrimination and inclusion by avoiding venues that are inherently unwelcoming and unsafe for LGBTQ people. Such locations include: ● Venues in cities or states with laws that sanction discrimination against LGBTQ people in goods, services and/or public accommodations; ● Venues in cities and/or states that prevent transgender people from using the bathroom and/or locker room consistent with their gender identity;1 ● Venues at schools that request Title IX exemptions to discriminate against students based on their sexual orientation and/or gender identity; and ● Venues in states that preempt or override local nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ people. The presence of even one of these factors would irreparably undermine the NCAA’s ability to ensure the health, safety and dignity of event participants.

  • LGBTQ Organizations Unite in Calling for Transformational Change in Policing
    LGBTQ Organizations Unite in Calling for Transformational Change in Policing Black people have been killed, Black people are dying at the hands of police, our country is in crisis, and we all need to take action. We cannot sit on the sidelines, we cannot acquiesce, and we cannot assign responsibility to others. We, as leaders in the LGBTQ movement, must rise up and call for structural change, for divestment of police resources and reinvestment in communities, and for long-term transformational change. Now is the time to take action, and this letter amplifies our strong calls for urgent and immediate action to be taken. Ongoing police brutality and systemic racism have plagued this nation for generations and have been captured on video and laid bare to the public in the United States and around the world. In 2019, more than 1,000 people were killed at the hands of the police.1 We mourn the unacceptable and untimely deaths of Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Philando Castile, Eric Garner, Stephon Clark, Freddie Gray, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Mya Hall, Tony McDade, Rayshard Brooks, and many more who were gone too soon. We have seen with increased frequency the shocking video footage of police brutality. Officers have been recorded instigating violence, screaming obscenities, dragging individuals out of cars, using unnecessary force, holding individuals at gunpoint, and kneeling on peoples’ necks to the desperate plea of “I can’t breathe.” These occurrences are stark reminders of a police system that needs structural changes, deconstruction, and transformation. No one should fear for their lives when they are pulled over by the police.

  • Employment Discrimination Based on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in Michigan
    Employment Discrimination Based on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in Michigan Christy Mallory and Brad Sears February 2015 Executive Summary More than 4% of the American workforce identifies as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT). Approximately 184,000 of these workers live in Michigan. Michigan does not have a statewide law that prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in both public and private sector employment. This report summarizes recent evidence of sexual orientation and gender identity employment discrimination, explains the limited current protections from sexual orientation and gender identity employment discrimination in Michigan, and estimates the administrative impact of passing a law prohibiting employment discrimination based on these characteristics in the state. 184,000 32% 84% 65% 16% 86 Estimated Income Workforce Transgender New Disparity Public Support Covered by Workers Complaints if Number of between for LGBT LGBT-Inclusive Reporting LGBT LGBT Workers Straight and Workplace Local Non- Workplace Protections Gay Male Protections Discrimination Discrimination are Added to Workers Laws State Laws Same-sex couples per 1,000 households, Discrimination experienced by transgender by Census tract (adjusted) workers in Michigan1 84% 44% 34% 23% Harassed or Not Hired Lost a Job Denied a Mistreated Promotion 1 Key findings of this report include: • In total there are approximately 300,000 LGBT adults in Michigan, including nearly 184,000 who are part of Michigan’s workforce.2 • Media reports, lawsuits, and complaints to community-based organizations document incidents of sexual orientation and gender identity discrimination against employees in Michigan.

  • Fact Sheet LGBTQ+ Adult
    LIVINGSTON COUNTY HUMAN SERVICES COLLABORATIVE BODY Health and Human Service Needs ADULT FACT SHEET LGBTQ+ in Livingston County September 2019 What does LGBTQ+ stand for? LGBTQ is an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer or questioning. These terms are used to describe a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. The + sign is inclusive to all other terms used to describe a person’s sexual orientation and gender identity. You can find definitions for these terms at the following link: https://bit.ly/2srceH4. Why is this issue so important to Livingston County? According to the 2015-16 American Community Data for Michigan, 3.8% of people identify as LGBTQ adults and an additional .43% identify as transgender. In 2010 there was 142 same sex households in Livingston County. According to the National Institutes of Health, there are 1.5 million gay, lesbian and bisexual people over 65 living in the US currently and that number is expected to double by 2030. These older adults face additional challenges as they seek both medical and household supports. What are the Alarming Facts? From the National LGBTQ Task Force Survey: 19% reported being refused medical care outright because they were transgender or gender non- conforming. 28% reported they were subjected to harassment in medical settings 50% reported having to teach their medical providers about transgender care 41% reported attempting suicide compared to 1.6% of the general population. According to the National Intimate Partner and sexual violence survey of 2010: 44% of lesbian women and 61% of bisexual women and 26% of gay men and 37% of bisexual men experienced rape, physical violence and/or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetime.
