🚨Anti-gay conservative activists are targeting companies for supporting inclusive workplaces, and major companies are taking the bait. If major corporations want the best talent, they need to have supportive diverse and inclusive workforces, period.

Ranking Member Rep. Frank Pallone joins Congressional Equality Caucus and LGBTQ rights leaders in filing an amicus brief with SCOTUS in U.S. v. Skrmetti to oppose an unconstitutional state law and protect access to care for transgender Americans.

Joined my colleagues in an amicus brief to protect access to care for transgender Americans. At stake is a Tennessee law that's both unconstitutional and interferes in the freedom to make care decisions between doctors and patients. It's wrong and must be stopped.

Politicians shouldn't get to override the private medical decisions that patients make with their doctors and family—that's why I joined 163 other Members of Congress today in urging the Supreme Court to protect transgender Americans' access to medically-necessary healthcare.

With the GOP continuing their attacks on the LGBTQIA community, let me be clear—NO ONE should be blocked from getting the healthcare they need. Today I and 163 other Dems urged SCOTUS to protect the trans community's right to access medical care & treatment in US v Skrmetti.

Trans rights are human rights. Joined the Congressional Equality Caucus and 163 Members of Congress to urge the Supreme Court to protect trans Americans' rights to access medically necessary health care. ⬇️

Rep. Linda Sánchez (@replindasanchez) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Today I joined 163 of my colleagues to call on the Supreme Court to protect trans Americans’ rights to access medically necessary health care. Choices about health care belong to the patient, their doctors, and their family – not extremist politicians.

Senator Jeff Merkley (@senjeffmerkley) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Everyone should have access to the health care they need, when they need it. That’s why I joined Ed Markey, Rep. Mark Pocan, and the Congressional Equality Caucus to challenge Tennessee’s ban on medically necessary care for transgender youth.

Everyone has the right to live true to themselves and be treated with respect for who they are. Today, with 163 other Members of Congress, I called on the Supreme Court to protect the rights of trans Americans to access essential healthcare in the case of US v. Skrmetti. 🏳️‍⚧️⚧️

Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester (@replbr) 's Twitter Profile Photo

I have joined 163 of my colleagues in urging the Supreme Court to protect trans Americans' access to medically necessary health care in the case of US v. Skrmetti. It's simple: there is no room in the doctor's office for elected officials.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (@repraskin) 's Twitter Profile Photo

I joined 164 of my colleagues in filing an amicus brief before the Supreme Court opposing transphobic legislation that puts politicians between the families of patients and their doctors. It's time for all of us to stand up for transgender youth.

Americans on both sides of the aisle believe politicians shouldn't be banning doctors from providing trans people with the healthcare they need. We're thankful to these Republicans for urging SCOTUS to uphold the Constitution & protect trans rights! nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-po…

Proud to cosign this effort with Congressional Equality Caucus & urge #SCOTUS to protect the constitutional rights of our trans community. Healthcare decisions should be up to patients, their families & doctors - not far right politicians.

Congresswoman Cori Bush (@repcori) 's Twitter Profile Photo

I will always stand with our trans communities in St. Louis and beyond. Proud to join 163 of my colleagues in urging SCOTUS to reject Tennessee’s cruel and unconstitutional ban on medically-necessary healthcare for trans youth.

Rosa DeLauro (@rosadelauro) 's Twitter Profile Photo

This week, I joined 163 other Members of Congress in urging the Supreme Court to protect trans Americans' rights to medically necessary healthcare. Politicians have no business getting between a person and their doctor.

Rep. John Larson (@repjohnlarson) 's Twitter Profile Photo

No politician should override a private medical decision. Health care bans are discriminatory, limiting access for transgender Americans. I filed a brief with 163 Members of Congress urging the Court to block Tennessee's extreme health care ban & protect trans Americans' rights.
