Issue Position: Equality

Issue Position

Despite all the advances toward equality we have made as a nation, discrimination is still prevalent in our society. Every day, Connecticut residents face discrimination based on gender identity, race, religion, sexuality and more. This discrimination manifests in unequal housing costs and limited job opportunities. It is our responsibility to ensure that all Connecticut residents have equal access to all of the benefits and opportunities that come from living in our great state.

I will work to protect the civil rights of everyone no matter their race, gender, religion, country of origin, age, or sexual orientation.
I will protect the right of women to make their own reproductive and healthcare decisions and advocate for improvements to sexual harassment policies.
I will fight against laws that discriminate against anyone.
