Our Human Rights and Equity Agenda
“The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice” said Martin Luther King Jr. While we have made strides for fairness and equity, we still have a long way to go to ensure every child, community, and identity gets every opportunity this nation has to offer.
Let’s Dare to Act for:
Requiring large corporations to pay an “Equity Tax” for any workers receiving government assistance
Fighting for protection and expansion of civil rights
Standing against racial and religious bigotry
Protecting the rights of those without a home
Expanding LGBTQ rights (e.g. in the workplace, schools, etc.)
Fully funding the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)
Racial equity impact assessments when drafting and voting on policy
A fair pathway to citizenship
Supporting the Disability Integration Act of 2017
