Engagement by party
Warning: A group of Republican senators — Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN), Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS), Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT), Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-ND), and Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) — is calling for the country's television ratings system to warn parents about "sexual orientation and gender identity content" on children's TV shows.

#LGBTQ Americans are NOT going back in the closet. Don’t these senators have anything productive to do, like vote for the House-passed #EqualityAct?
As we celebrate the Lesbian Day of Visibility, we are reminded that the work for equality is not yet finished. I urge the Senate to join the House in passing the #EqualityAct.
Some politicians are waging unceasing attacks on LGBTQ+ folks—particularly trans youth. These stories are heartbreaking. Everyone should feel loved, valued, and welcomed in their communities. Trans people should not have to fight for their right to exist.
I will continue to work in the Senate to pass the #EqualityAct and make federal non-discrimination protections for LGBTQ+ Americans part of federal law. And I will do everything I can to #ProtectTransKids in Oregon and around the country.

Congressional caucus committed to achieving the full enjoyment of human rights for LGBTQ+ people in the U.S. and around the world.
President Biden made history today, becoming the first sitting @POTUS to meet with the @LGBTEqCaucus.
Great meeting with @POTUS today regarding the need for the #EqualityAct, and other #LGBTQ+ issues.
We also discussed strategies to lower gas prices, ongoing support of the Ukrainian people, tackling student loan debt, and housing and homelessness.
Trans rights are human rights - it's as simple as that.
As a Member of the @LGBTEqCaucus, I'm proud to support the #EqualityAct to make sure all of our community members have the rights they deserve. #TransDayOfVisibility
On #TransDayofVisibility, we honor the courage and resilience of trans people across Maryland and the country. I will continue to support legislation like the #EqualityAct to strengthen anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ+ Americans.
On #TransgenderDayofVisibility, we celebrate the courage, power and resilience of all trans people to live as who they are. We all deserve to live our lives free from discrimination, harassment, and violence. Our laws should reflect that. Let’s pass the #EqualityAct.
