Include sexual orientation as a federal protected class.

Created by R.M. on August 16, 2013

Despite the many advances that our nation has made toward equal rights for LGBT people in the last few years, sexual orientation is still not included as a federal protected class. This means that LGBT people are not fully protected by anti-discrimination laws and can legally be turned away from employment and housing simply for being who they are. It's time for this to change by including sexual orientation as a protected class under federal law.
