House and Senate Democrats on Tuesday reintroduced the Equality Act, a landmark civil rights bill that would make sexual orientation and gender identity protected classes.
The measure, which would amend a federal law that already outlaws discrimination based on race, religion, sex and national origin, faces an uphill battle in a Congress controlled by Republicans, who have long opposed it over concerns it would trample religious freedom rights.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Why do I think Lindsey Graham will vote for this?
The Freak Show continues.
The same bill in both houses at the same time? I’m guessing it’s a DOA pro-tranny bill as the dems fall deeper in the political abyss.
Thankfully, it won’t see the light of day in this Congress. Johnson, with all his faults, won’t let it.
Turning mental and character disorders into protected classes is a slippery slope of epic proportions.
How soon until Thugees of the Cult of Kali Ma are “protected” in their human sacrifice to their many-armed goddess?
Dementiacrats have already firmly ensconced the “right” of human sacrifice in many areas under their control by affirming “abortion” as a fundamentally protected right.
It won’t take an army of strip-mall lawyers to push this argument over on SCOTUS justices like ACB, KJB and the diabetic dementia pair of the wise-a$$ latinX and Kagen. Epstein-owned Roberts will fall in line “on principle” no problem.
So this is their great plan to win back congress during the mid-terms? More gay stuff
I think a bill should be introduced to eliminate liberalism making it a crime to use common sense.
More protected classes to deal with, the American people are being railroaded and ostracized by these minority parasitic groups that now have the full protection of the rat government to continue grooming your children. Open your mouth and you will find yourself in jail. My worry is maintaining what we have now because the cancer is waiting in the wings to come back with a vengeance
How about no?
It would force the acceptance of mental illness.
Absolutely NO.
They think this will be good election fodder.
Not this term but the Democrats are laying down their chips for a future battle. They are signaling that they are not backing down but rather doubling down. There can be no compromise here. We need to put a stake in the heart of this vampire now, discrediting anyone who would support such lunacy. We also need to counter with our own civil rights bill that would outlaw discrimination against anyone who upholds traditional moral standards.
How come they couldn’t pass it when they were in charge?
It’ll give DJT a chance to use his veto pen.
Some are more equal than others.
the mentally ill are already protected under the American with disabilities act.
“…concerns it would trample religious freedom rights”
It would do lots more than that. You will be charged with endless “hate crimes.” Your kids will be taken from you Home schooling will die. It will be perversions shoved down your throat 24x7. Elementary schools will be filled with graphic homo smut. Your libraries and schools will be filled with tranny story time.
You will be REQUIRED to attend two LGBQXYZ events per year.
Mainstreaming & normalizing a severe mental disorder.
They can call it The Make Believe bill.
I can’t figure out what happened to Democrats.
