The Board of Directors of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Congressional Staff Association (LGBT CSA) released the following statement regarding the LGBTQ employment protections enacted in the Rules of the U.S. House of Representatives as part of the 116th Congress House rules package:

“The Board of Directors of the LGBT Congressional Staff Association praises the provision within the new House rules package that provides sexual orientation and gender identity workplace protections for Congressional staff in the 116th Congress. This historic addition to the House rules will provide crucial job security for LGBTQ staff in the House of Representatives.

“This move also sends a powerful message about the importance of diversity within the institution we serve, saying that LGBTQ individuals are welcome on Capitol Hill and that the House of Representatives values and respects the identity and dignity of all LGBTQ people.”
