Tzedek, Tzedek Tirdof : Win GENDA in 2010!
"The first human being was created wholly female and wholly male at the same time." -Genesis Rabbah 8:1 (c. 400 CE)
The Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act (GENDA) is a bill that would outlaw discrimination in New York State based on gender identity and/or expression. Currently it is legal in New York to be fired from your job, kicked out of your home or be denied credit or public accommodations (like service in a restaurant) simply for being transgender.
Join CBST and the Pride Agenda in asking Senator Tom Duane what his plan is for passing GENDA and what we can do to help. You can reach him at (212) 633-8052. For more information about Social Justice at CBST, email Alex Weissman, Social Justice Coordinator at aweissman@cbst.org .
