STJEPAN,
Congress is reconvening for their lame duck session TODAY and a newly-emboldened right-wing majority is pushing a terrible attack on LGBT people and religious freedom. We can still stop it! We need to get victories where we can and this is a chance to pick up a win for constitutional rights and values. Please email your senators NOW>> (If you already contacted your senators, please do so again -- they can't hear from you enough!)
THANK YOU for all you do.
-- Paul
STJEPAN,
Right now, the House and the Senate are reconciling the different versions of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed by each chamber.Included in the House-passed version was an amendment -- the Russell Amendment -- that would allow federal contractors and grantees to discriminate in employment on the basis of religion. It's part of the overall effort by the Far Right to redefine religious liberty and change it from what has been a shield to protect religious exercise into weapon used to harm other people and deprive them of their legal rights.Despite this being a bill to authorize Defense spending, the amendment would apply across the federal government. Among other things, it would gut President Obama’s executive order prohibiting discrimination against LGBT people by federal contractors. It would also open the door to discrimination against any number of other communities. We cannot let the Russell Amendment make it into the final version of the bill.The House’s version has the Russell Amendment, and the Senate’s does not. We're calling on senators to tell Armed Services Committee Chairman John McCain and Ranking Member Jack Reed to keep the Russell Amendment out of the final version of the bill. Please take a brief moment to email your US senators now and tell them to urge them to do all they can to keep the Russell Amendment OUT of the NDAA>>
-- Paul Gordon, Senior Legislative Counsel
