WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 El Senador de EE. UU. de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, y los Senadores de EE. UU. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) y Cory Booker (D-NJ), patrocinadores principales del Ley de Igualdad<\/i> en el Senado\u2014 habl\u00f3 hoy ante el Comit\u00e9 Judicial del Senado para enfatizar la necesidad de aprobar la legislaci\u00f3n para proteger los derechos y libertades de los estadounidenses LGBTQ.<\/p>\n

El Ley de Igualdad<\/i>El 24 de febrero de 2021, la C\u00e1mara de Representantes de EE. UU. aprob\u00f3 una legislaci\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica e integral para prohibir la discriminaci\u00f3n contra los estadounidenses LGBTQ, al igual que la discriminaci\u00f3n religiosa, racial y \u00e9tnica es ilegal en todo Estados Unidos.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cDesde su fundaci\u00f3n, Estados Unidos ha tenido imperfecciones. Pero parte de lo que hace que este pa\u00eds sea tan especial es el hecho de que generaciones de estadounidenses han marchado, votado, organizado y alzado la voz para acercarnos a una uni\u00f3n m\u00e1s perfecta con libertad, igualdad y oportunidades para todos\u201d. dijo Merkley<\/b>. \u201cHoy esa visi\u00f3n est\u00e1 empa\u00f1ada por la oscura maldici\u00f3n de la discriminaci\u00f3n que acecha las vidas de los estadounidenses LGBTQ. Nuestros compatriotas estadounidenses pueden ser expulsados de un restaurante, negados una hipoteca, despedidos del servicio de jurado o desalojados de sus hogares por ser quienes son o a quienes aman. Hagamos de 2021 el a\u00f1o en que eliminemos esta discriminaci\u00f3n y celebremos la libertad, la igualdad y las oportunidades para todos\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cLa discriminaci\u00f3n sigue siendo una realidad diaria para los miembros de la comunidad LGBTQ en demasiados lugares. La mayor\u00eda de los estados a\u00fan carecen de protecciones integrales contra la discriminaci\u00f3n en el empleo, la vivienda, los lugares p\u00fablicos, la educaci\u00f3n y otros lugares. Nuestra comunidad simplemente busca ser incluida, tener las mismas oportunidades que cualquier otro estadounidense. De eso se trata la Ley de Igualdad: hacer que el marco federal de derechos civiles de nuestra naci\u00f3n de d\u00e9cadas de antig\u00fcedad sea inclusivo para las personas LGBTQ y ampliar las oportunidades que brindan a m\u00e1s personas, sin disminuirlas para los dem\u00e1s. Este esfuerzo no se trata de quitarles algo a los dem\u00e1s, sino de garantizar que las personas LGBTQ puedan participar plenamente en la vida de nuestra naci\u00f3n\u201d. dijo el senador Baldwin.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cNo podemos pretender ser una naci\u00f3n de libertad y justicia para todos cuando nuestros compatriotas estadounidenses son discriminados simplemente por ser quienes son y a quienes aman\u201d. dijo el senador Booker<\/b>. \u201cSi vamos a celebrar los ideales de libertad y libertad, debemos tener protecciones integrales a nivel nacional para los estadounidenses LGBTQ+. La audiencia de hoy es un importante paso adelante que destaca la urgencia de aprobar esta legislaci\u00f3n vital como ley\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

El video de los comentarios de los senadores est\u00e1 disponible aqu\u00ed.<\/a>.<\/p>\n

El 19 de febrero de 2021, Merkley, Booker y Baldwin anunciaron que presentar\u00edan el Ley de Igualdad<\/i> en el senado<\/a>\u2014y lo hizo la semana siguiente.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
