Florida Democrat Party Update
The House
of Representatives passed a sweeping civil rights bill that will protect
millions of LGBTQ Americans from discrimination. If passed by the Senate, the
Equality Act would be a historic piece of legislation that moves America one
step closer to equal opportunity for all her citizens.
Juan
Peñalosa, executive director of the Florida Democratic Party, praised the House
of Representatives and called upon senators Rick Scott and Marco Rubio to
pledge their support to pass the Equality Act:
"Today was a historic day for all of us. The Equality Act
will ensure LGBTQ Americans have equal opportunity in the land of the free. The
next stop for the Equality Act is the U.S. Senate, and we are calling on our
Florida Senators, Marco Rubio and Rick Scott to support this historic
legislation. It's time that our Senators do the right thing and say yes to
passing the Equality Act."
