Although titled the “Equality Act,” the policies contained within this bill would create greater inequality.
Here’s what the bill would do to our country:
- Women will be forced to share their bathrooms and locker rooms with men who identify as women.
- Women will be pushed out of women’s sports (and college scholarships) by men who identify as women.
- Elementary schools will teach that gender is fluid explaining that boys can be girls and girls can be boys.
- Parents could lose custody of their children if they refuse treatment by doctors who want to prescribe their children puberty blockers and hormone therapies.
- Businesses and religious charities who refuse to comply with this new mandate will be forced to close.
While we do not expect the bill to advance to the Senate for a vote, it is important that we remain vigilant against these radical pieces of legislation.
