We request that the Obama Administration encourage the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) and Athletes to support human rights for worldwide lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) citizens by wearing rainbow-colored pins or carry rainbow-colored flags during the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Sochi Winter Olympics in Russia. We also request that the USOC release a public statement recognizing the human rights of all worldwide LGBT athletes and citizens to live freely, compete freely, work freely, and love freely.
