“Equality of opportunity is a key pillar of our great democracy—one that allows all people to pursue their American Dream—and part of what makes our nation exceptional. Our industries, representing and employing tens of millions of Americans, understand this basic fact and have been at the forefront of efforts to combat discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in the workplace.”
These sentiments were expressed in a letter several trade and professional associations, including the CFDA, sent to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy on Wednesday in support of H.R. 5, the Equality Act.
