Rep. Cicilline On Support For LGBTQ Rights: ‘It’s Time For Congress To Catch Up’ | NBC News NOW
Its discrimmination to not allow biological men into the private and safe places of women. ??? You are so full l of lies. We can see it in your face. Democrats are mysonginists
Its the multi billionaires that own you that want this act. Next you will be fighting for tranhumanism.
I'm a trans guy who always played male sports growing up. I was just too strong for the girls team as a girl. So I was always with the guys anyways.
What about medical care?
Darkness..PRAY!!!
You see the definition of equality & discrimination is severely corrupted in our society. Disagreeing about LGBTQ isn’t discrimination, that’s respectfully choosing to not condone. As someone who is a Christian we absolutely LOVE all people,including those within the LGBTQ community. However we are taught God has created Man & Women to be soulmates for each other & that is the standard. Your identity is who God made you. Male, or Female.
*This is not condemning nor judging,this is just stating we do not condone the act of homosexuality & gender swapping because it is immoral under God’s law.
As always, equality in our nation is definitely mandatory;as such everyone deserves it. The problem with this recent Act is it denies the right of religious people to disagree with LGBTQ culture. Yes you heard me. Apparently society thinks disagreement = discriminatory and religious morals are below society’s changes. As a Christian I do believe this Act is good because it’s reaching for more equality,but this has many flaws that need to be fixed if you want true equality. Don’t shove down your subjective views in all citizens,for this is much like the disposition of an authoritative government
I don’t think private groups should be able to deny either
Trust the Soience.
Except when it concerns gender determination.

Investing in cryptocurrency is one of the best chance of making money
This is an attack on religious freedom!
This isn’t about sports and trans. That is GQP conspiracy theorists propaganda
I also want pp in my but but mentioned it to zero applauds
Be careful what you say on this comment section! you could get harassed……………. lol!!
So when I see an ad in the newspaper and it says room for rent and it says female only me being a guy I could rent it out? There are thousands and thousands of ads like that ,,,, women only renters… You can see the problem we're gonna have … They should have equal rights either way but with certain things they shouldn't ,,, just like men don't have equal rights to do everything a women can.. regular Men are discriminated against quite a bit with certain things…
This same bill declares The Bible as a "Bigoted " Document. Very Christophobic and AntiChrist
BS…….. keep men out of women locker rooms and women's sports.
Discrimination, racism, sexism, homophobia etc. will only come to an end once we truly understand what exactly makes us equal. As long as that remains vague, sentimental and conceptual, it will never really change at its root.

America is collapsing but let’s focus on my sexuality
Won't pass the Senate. I'm not even sure if it'll make it to 50-50.
The act was signed in romans 1.
With equality comes EQUAL expectations, that's where most lobbying for it come up short.
If transgender men can compete against women then actual men should be able to compete against women as well. Especially in combat sports. Gender equality for all. âœÅÂ
Trans rights are Human rights!
find more dems to vote or destroy filibuster rules to keep things going…
It would be about time for justice for all.
That's great now if Women and Minorities can have the same treatment for the way they were born
