THE EQUALITY ACT
Click on the image above to learn about the Equality Act.
Rep. Schneider voted for the Equality Act and helped the House pass it in March of 2021. Both Senator Duckworth and Senator Durbin have signed on as co-sponsors of the Senate bill as well. You can write to thank all of them for their support of this legislation. In addition, since the Senate version of the bill is in the Judiciary Committee and Senator Durbin is chair of that committee, you can urge him to take up the matter in committee so that it moves along toward passage in the Senate.
