WASHINGTON – Sen. Jeff Merkley D-Ore., released the following statement Wednesday after President Trump reversed the Justice Department’s policy protecting transgender students.<\/p>\n

\u201cNuestra naci\u00f3n nunca debe conformarse con nada menos que la plena igualdad y plenos derechos para todos los estadounidenses. Esto es especialmente importante en nuestras escuelas, donde ning\u00fan estudiante deber\u00eda tener que temer discriminaci\u00f3n simplemente por su identidad.<\/p>\n

\u201cLos estudiantes transg\u00e9nero ya enfrentan desaf\u00edos dif\u00edciles en la escuela (intimidaci\u00f3n, acoso) y esta medida har\u00e1 que sea m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil para estos estudiantes tener \u00e9xito en la escuela.<\/p>\n

\u201cDebemos tomar una posici\u00f3n a favor de la igualdad y en contra de la discriminaci\u00f3n, y mantener la orientaci\u00f3n del Departamento de Justicia sobre c\u00f3mo incluir a los estudiantes transg\u00e9nero por igual.<\/p>\n

\u201cEn \u00faltima instancia, el Congreso debe actuar para extender la igualdad de derechos b\u00e1sicos a todos los estadounidenses\u201d.<\/p>\n

En 2015, Merkley redact\u00f3 e introdujo la Ley de Igualdad, un proyecto de ley integral para proteger a los estadounidenses lesbianas, gays, bisexuales y transg\u00e9nero de la discriminaci\u00f3n. La Ley agrega la orientaci\u00f3n sexual y la identidad de g\u00e9nero a otras clases protegidas en las leyes federales de derechos civiles existentes, como la raza y el g\u00e9nero, para garantizar que todos reciban el mismo trato. El a\u00f1o pasado, la Casa Blanca de Obama expres\u00f3 su apoyo a la Ley de Igualdad.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
