What's at Stake
Sexual orientation and gender identity have nothing to do with how well a person can do their job. Yet LGBT workers are often rejected by employers, denied compensation and benefits, or even fired because of who they love or who they are. At the ACLU, we’re advocating for clear and explicit laws that protect LGBT people from discrimination on the job. We’re also arguing in court to ensure that existing laws, including federal civil rights laws, are interpreted to include LGBT people in America’s promise of equal treatment. We won’t stop fighting until all LGBT people are entitled to fair consideration based on their job qualifications alone, just like everyone else.
