Issue Position: Standing With Our LGBTQ Community

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018
Issues: Civil Liberties and Civil Rights Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

Massachusetts has been a leader on rights for our LGBTQ community members and we have made it clear that discrimination has no place in our state.

LGBTQ rights have always been important to me, as Chair of the LGBTQ Aging Commission and as chief sponsor of the funding for the LGBTQ Youth Commission.

I was proud to vote for the transgender anti-discrimination bill in 2016, which protects transgender people from discrimination in public places, such as restaurants, stores, hospitals, and in restrooms, and encourage everyone to Vote Yes on 3 and uphold this important law.
