We should support full legal and political equality for all persons regardless of sex, gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity, characteristics, and expression.
We should affirm the rights of all individuals to freely choose intimate partners, regardless of their sex, gender, or gender identity.
We must recognize the full civil rights of sexual and gender minorities. The existing civil rights act prohibits discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, and disability. We must work to add sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression to the existing civil rights act.
We should be inclusive of language in local, state and federal anti- discrimination law that ensures the rights of intersex individuals and prohibits discrimination based on gender identity, characteristics, and expression as well as on sex, gender, or sexual orientation. We should oppose non-consenting intersex genital surgery.
We should affirm the right of all persons to self-determination with regard to gender identity and sex. We would affirm the right of choosing non-binary and gender fluid identification. We should therefore support the right of individuals to be free from coercion and involuntary assignment of gender or sex.
We should support legislation where offenders must pay compensation to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual (LGBTQIA) people who have suffered violence and injustice.
We should end all Federal military aid to national governments whose laws result in the death, other harm, or imprisonment of its citizens and residents who are Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual (LGBTQIA).
We should support enacting a policy that the U. S. Government recognize all same sex marriages or legal equivalents such as civil unions, in processing visitor and immigration visas.
We must end security surveillance and covert infiltration of organizations that promote rights for sexual and gender minorities.
