  • 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. These include reports from a CEO, a nursing assistant, and a local government employee.

This manual has been compiled as a counterpart to the Project Safe Training. The myriad of resources included on the Project Safe Training disk will be referred to in many sections of this manual in addition to various internet resource links. We like to recognize the work that has been/is being done, not only at Lawrence Technological University, but other schools, colleges, universities, and grassroots and community organizations around the United States and world. We have done our best to include or link to as many of those resources as possible. You will find many sections of this manual contain a simple statement redirecting you to one of those resources. *If you find a resource missing or broken link, or would like us to consider including any additional resources please email [email protected]. Mission & Goals The mission of Project Safe is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental campus environment for all LTU students, faculty, staff, and allies who may have questions and/or concerns related to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender issues.

  • EQMI ACLU Request for Interpretative Statement
    Co-Chairs Laura Reyes Kopack and Rasha Demashkieh Michigan Civil Rights Commission 110 West Michigan Avenue, Suite 800 Lansing, MI 48913 June 30, 2017 Dear Co-Chairs Reyes Kopack and Demashkieh: We are writing to request that the Michigan Civil Rights Commission (“Commission”) issue an interpretative statement finding that the prohibition on sex discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodations found in Michigan’s Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act (“Elliott-Larsen”), MCL 37.2101 et seq., includes a prohibition on discrimination based on an individual’s gender identity and sexual orientation. The Commission has the authority to issue such a statement under MCL 37.2601; MCL 24.201 et seq.; Mich Admin Code, R 37.23. This interpretative statement is of critical importance to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Michiganders. As you are no doubt aware, unlike 18 other states1, Michigan does not have a state law that explicitly prohibits anti-LGBT discrimination in employment, housing, or public accommodations. The Commission itself has concluded that discrimination against LGBT people in Michigan “exists and is significant” and “has direct negative economic effects on Michigan.”2 In addition, although the federal prohibition on sex discrimination in employment under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(1) (“Title VII”), has been interpreted to encompass discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation, many LGBT people in Michigan do not receive the benefit of this prohibition, because they work for employers with fewer than fifteen employees, the threshold for Title VII coverage. Amending Elliott-Larsen to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation is a top public policy priority for Michigan’s LGBT community and our respective organizations.

  • July 3, 2018 Robert R. Redfield, M.D. Director Centers for Disease Control & Prevention 1600 Clifton Road Atlanta, GA
    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.
