A Senator Marie Newman in the US congress proposed a bill that was titled the Equity Act Bill. This particular bill would see Transgender people and the LGBTQI+ individuals given more rights that many have seen to be controversial.
The bill sponsored by a member of congress from the Democratic Party has divided opinions especially due to its controversial nature.

These are some of the details of the Equity Act

1. Force Schools Nationwide to teach kids about LGBT idealogy without parents consent
2. Mandate that schools allow biological boys to access girl's restrooms
3. Require teachers and students to use preferred names and pronouns of those who identify as transgender
4. Require employers to implement strict preferred pronouns policies
5. Compel employers to provide health insurance for sex realignment surgery
6. Allow men to enter and use women's public bathrooms, locker rooms and showers
7. Allow males to compete in female sports.

However, republican senators such as Majorie Taylor Greene has snapped back at Senator Newman citing there are only 2 genders

Truly the WORLD is coming to an end

Confused country

This is why I love Biden... No more Freaks, We're what we are!

Truly there are two genders.

Male and Female

wow

All thanks to biden,

They will not do research but will just stupidly accept what someone posts without checking!

First, its called the Equality Act Bill, and not the ignorant title the op gave it, and it does not do the nonsense the op lies that it does!

You may read the act here if you wish to inform yourself. I have also posted an extract from NPR below. The full text summarizes the views of proponents and opponents.



What would the Equality Act do?

The Equality Act would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act to explicitly prevent discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

The bill has been introduced multiple times before and previously passed the House in 2019. However, the law's impact would be different in practical terms now than it was then.

That's because the Supreme Court ruled in June of last year, in Bostock v. Clayton County, that the protections guaranteed by the 1964 Civil Rights Act on the basis of sex also extend to discrimination against lesbian, gay, and transgender Americans. The logic was that a man who, for example, loses his job because he has a same-sex partner is facing discrimination on the basis of sex — that, were he a woman, he wouldn't have faced that discrimination.

This act would explicitly enshrine those nondiscrimination protections into law for sexual orientation and gender identity, rather than those protections being looped in under the umbrella of "sex." However, the Equality Act would also substantially expand those protections.

The Civil Rights Act covered discrimination in certain areas, like employment and housing. The Equality Act would expand that to cover federally funded programs, as well as "public accommodations" — a broad category including retail stores and stadiums, for example.

If you knew about the Civil Rights Act (1964) and understand how it helped combat discrimination, you might understand the need for this bill.

Knowledge is power. Ignorance kills!

Shey they wanted Biden, now they have him.

Same way we allowed ourselves to be deceived by Buhari.
