WASHINGTON, DC - El senador de Oreg\u00f3n Jeff Merkley, coautor del Ley de Igualdad<\/i> junto con el congresista David Cicilline (D-RI), emitieron la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n luego de la aprobaci\u00f3n bipartidista de la legislaci\u00f3n por parte de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes de EE. UU. El Ley de Igualdad<\/i> es una legislaci\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica e integral<\/a> eso agregar\u00eda protecciones expl\u00edcitas para los estadounidenses LGBTQ a las leyes de derechos civiles de la naci\u00f3n, asegurando que ning\u00fan estadounidense pierda su trabajo, sea desalojado de su hogar o se le niegue un servicio basado en su estatus LGBTQ. El proyecto de ley aclarar\u00eda que, al igual que la discriminaci\u00f3n religiosa, racial o de g\u00e9nero, la discriminaci\u00f3n anti-LGBTQ es ilegal en todos los Estados Unidos de Am\u00e9rica.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cHoy es un d\u00eda hist\u00f3rico en nuestro viaje estadounidense de lucha continua hacia una uni\u00f3n m\u00e1s perfecta. Desde Gettysburg hasta Seneca Falls, Selma, Stonewall y m\u00e1s all\u00e1, personas valientes han presionado continuamente para acercar a nuestra naci\u00f3n a su ideal fundacional de que todos somos creados iguales. Con la votaci\u00f3n de hoy, comenzamos a escribir otro cap\u00edtulo en esa gran historia estadounidense, que finalmente garantizar\u00e1 la plena igualdad y oportunidades para los estadounidenses LGBTQ en todo el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n

\u201cHoy, el 65el<\/sup> aniversario de un momento hist\u00f3rico en el viaje de nuestra naci\u00f3n hacia la igualdad: el Brown contra la Junta<\/i> decisi\u00f3n que puso fin a la segregaci\u00f3n patrocinada por el estado: volvamos a comprometernos a llevar la lucha por la igualdad total al 21calle<\/sup> siglo. Ya es hora de que todos los estadounidenses tengan protecciones completas y expl\u00edcitas contra la discriminaci\u00f3n simplemente por ser quienes son oa qui\u00e9n aman. Ahora, el Senado debe asumir y aprobar esta legislaci\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica, y dejar que las campanas de la libertad suenen en todo Estados Unidos\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
