  • LGBT Sign-On Letter in Support of the October 5 National Day of Dignity and Respect for Humane Immigration Reform
    LGBT Sign-on Letter in Support of the October 5 National Day of Dignity and Respect for Humane Immigration Reform An Open Letter in Support of the National Day of Dignity and Respect for Humane Immigration Reform The lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) and allied organizations listed below strongly support the October 5 National Day of Dignity and Respect for Humane Immigration Reform. Our broken immigration system causes great harm and suffering to hundreds of thousands of LGBT and HIV-positive immigrants and aspiring citizens. We urge the House of Representatives to act quickly and urgently to pass humane immigration reform, including a pathway to citizenship and protection for vulnerable LGBT and HIV-positive immigrants, asylum seekers, and detainees. We will stand with a broad spectrum of organizations and individuals on October 5 to tell Congress: Act NOW to pass humane immigration reform. This year, the LGBT community has celebrated a tremendous victory in the fight for equality and justice for LGBT immigrant families. While we celebrate, we remain committed to humane immigration reform to ensure no LGBT immigrant – or any immigrant – is left behind. Our community and families have been excluded from our nation’s immigration laws for decades. Lesbian and gay immigrants were banned from immigrating to the United States until 1990, HIV-positive immigrants were banned from immigrating until 2010, and shockingly, the immigration ban on LGBT families continued until June 26 of this year when the Supreme Court overturned part of the Defense of Marriage Act. After decades of discrimination and exclusion, LGBT family ties are finally recognized in our country’s immigration system, allowing us to now sponsor our spouses for green cards.

    May 9, 2018 The Honorable Charles Grassley Chairman Senate Committee on the Judiciary 224 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 The Honorable Dianne Feinstein Ranking Member Senate Committee on the Judiciary 152 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 RE: 32 LGBT Groups Oppose Confirmation of Ryan Bounds Dear Chairman Grassley and Ranking Member Feinstein: We, the undersigned 32 national, state and local advocacy organizations representing the interests of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people and everyone living with HIV, urge you to oppose the nomination of Ryan Bounds to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Mr. Bounds’ record leaves little doubt in our minds that he is incapable of administering fair and impartial justice towards LGBT people and other marginalized communities. Mr. Bounds has clearly and consistently expressed his animosity towards vulnerable communities through a series of commentaries that he wrote while serving as the opinions editor for the Stanford Review. For example, in one piece, Mr. Bounds criticized students of color and LGBT students for being “overly-sensitive” in the face of discriminatory acts specifically targeting them. Following the vandalism of an on-campus statute celebrating “gay pride” (without explanation, Mr. Bounds places the term gay pride in quotes) by a group of athletes, Mr. Bounds expressed concerned only about the rights of the athletes, without any recognition of the effect of this action on LGBT students. He went on to bemoan the university’s decision to provide financial support for the on-campus LGBT center as a result of the incident.1 Similarly, following the firing of a senior Latino administrator, Mr.

  • September 14, 2009 Dear Member of Congress, on Behalf of the Below
    September 14, 2009 Dear Member of Congress, On behalf of the below-named civil rights organizations, we urge you to become a cosponsor of the Respect for Marriage Act of 2009. The Respect for Marriage Act repeals the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which singles out lawfully married same-sex couples for discriminatory treatment under federal law, thereby denying them and them alone among married couples more than 1100 federal protections and responsibilities that would otherwise apply to them once legally married. Until DOMA was enacted in 1996, federal law deferred to states in determining who could marry and be considered married, and the principle of comity and constitutional guarantee of full faith and credit governed states’ obligations to honor marriages validly celebrated elsewhere. DOMA was an unprecedented departure from these long-established rules. Not only does DOMA purport to allow states to refuse to recognize valid civil marriages of same-sex couples (§ 2), it carves all same-sex couples, even those who have taken on the serious legal responsibilities of civil marriage and are recognized as married under state law, out of all federal statutes, regulations, and rulings applicable to all other married people (§ 3). As a result, legally married same-sex spouses cannot: • File their taxes jointly • Receive spousal, mother’s and father’s, or surviving spouse benefits under Social Security even though they pay into Social Security throughout their careers • Take unpaid leave to care for a sick or injured spouse • Receive employer-provided family health benefits without paying an additional tax that different-sex spouses do not pay • Receive the same family health and retirement/pension benefits as fellow married employees • Be protected by the safe harbor provisions in bankruptcy law, Medicaid rules and other federal statutes that secure some resources and the family home when debts of one spouse threaten to leave both financially responsible spouses destitute.

  • Matthew Kacsmaryk
    January 17, 2018 The Honorable Charles Grassley Chairman Senate Committee on the Judiciary 224 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 The Honorable Dianne Feinstein Ranking Member Senate Committee on the Judiciary 152 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 RE: 39 LGBT Groups Oppose Confirmation of Matthew Kacsmaryk Dear Chairman Grassley and Ranking Member Feinstein: We, the undersigned 39 national, state and local advocacy organizations, representing the interests of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people and everyone living with HIV, urge you to oppose the nomination of Matthew Kacsmaryk to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. Mr. Kacsmaryk is an anti-LGBT activist who serves as deputy general counsel at First Liberty Institute (FLI). Mr. Kacsmaryk was nominated to the federal bench alongside his former FLI colleague Jeff Mateer, who described transgender children as part of “Satan’s plan.” Now, Mr. Kacsmaryk may not have been filmed uttering the words “Satan’s plan” in reference to trans children, but his suggestion that transgender people are “delusional”1 shows that he is cut from the same cloth as Mr. Mateer, whose nomination was widely criticized and eventually (and appropriately) withdrawn. Like Mr. Mateer, Mr. Kacsmaryk’s history of targeting those who do not live according to his particular social and religious beliefs calls into doubt his ability to administer fair and impartial justice. For example, in the course of representing a client who refused retail services to a same-sex couple based on the owner’s religious beliefs, Mr. Kacsmaryk argued that “[u]nder Supreme Court precedent, even the state’s interest in preventing sexual orientation-based discrimination cannot justify serious burdens on the Kleins’ constitutionally protected religious freedom.”2 Likewise, Mr.

    July 3, 2018 Robert R. Redfield, M.D. Director Centers for Disease Control & Prevention 1600 Clifton Road Atlanta, GA 30329-4027 USA Dear Dr. Redfield, The undersigned organizations are writing in support of maintaining the Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) optional module to the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). As you are aware, BRFSS is the nation's premier system of health-related telephone surveys that collect state data about U.S. residents regarding their health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventive services. The CDC provides the BRFSS to states to obtain data on risk behaviors and health conditions in the U.S. population. The SOGI module in the BRFSS — an optional module since 2014 — has been used in more than 30 states and territories and have provided the first representative snapshot of transgender health in the United States. In 2017 the optional BRFSS SOGI module was funded by the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE). However, ASPE did not fund its inclusion beyond 2017. The information collected as a part of the SOGI module to the BRFSS provides critical data that helps improve the health and wellness of our nation. This is an extremely important source of data on these issues and is particularly relevant to shaping our response to the intersectional HIV, Viral Hepatitis, and the drug overdose epidemics. We understand from the Williams Institute that until late in the process the draft survey for 2019 did not include the SOGI module because of a lack of funding although we understand the CDC has now found the money necessary to add the module to BRFSS 2019.
