About This Action

​We are working to pass comprehensive non-discrimination protections (housing, employment and public accommodations) for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) Pennsylvanians. This will make it illegal to discriminate in these areas based on sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.

Why does it matter?

By passing non-discrimination protections we will ensure that all Pennsylvanians are able to fully participate and have equal protections in the workplace, housing, and business and government services. This action will update the state’s Human Relations Act – originally written in 1955 – to ensure that all citizens regardless of race, color, religion, ancestry, age, sex, national origin, disability, and now sexual orientation, gender identity and expression – can participate in the state’s economy.

How Can You Help?

  • PHONE BANK: There's only one way we'll win equality and justice — by having real conversations with local people about our issues. That's why we need you as part of our growing volunteer team on the phones!
  • WEEKEND CANVASS: Coming soon!
  • VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT: We need your help to call and recruit folks who signed up or expressed an interest in volunteering. This outreach is critical to fill our volunteer shifts!
The National Equality Action Team (NEAT) is a grassroots field program that mobilizes supporters of LGBT equality and allows anyone, no matter where they live, to play a role in historic campaigns by providing opportunities to engage in direct action. Freedom for All Americans, the national campaign to win LGBT-inclusive non-discrimination protections, serves as the chair of the campaign.
