LGBTQ Rights

Every person deserves to live with dignity, safety, and equality—no exceptions. But in Pennsylvania, LGBTQ+ people still face discrimination in housing, healthcare, education, and the workplace. As your State Representative, I will fight to ensure our laws protect everyone, regardless of who they are or who they love.

 

I will work to:

​

• Pass comprehensive non-discrimination protections so LGBTQ+ Pennsylvanians are fully protected in housing, employment, public accommodations, and education.

• Expand healthcare access by ensuring gender-affirming care is covered, affordable, and accessible, and by protecting LGBTQ+ youth from attacks on their healthcare rights.

• Protect LGBTQ+ youth by strengthening anti-bullying policies in schools, funding inclusive mental health services, and banning harmful practices like conversion therapy.

• Support families by making sure LGBTQ+ parents have equal rights in adoption, foster care, and family recognition.

• Defend civil rights against any attempts to roll back marriage equality, healthcare protections, or trans rights.
