Equality Act “Must Be Championed By People of All Faiths and Philosophies”

Rabbi Jack Moline, president of Interfaith Alliance, celebrated the introduction of The Equality Act in Congress today, saying:

“Our country is founded on the idea that all are created equal — a value shared across faith traditions and philosophies. The aspirations of our founders have not always managed to find full expression in society. The Equality Act is a step forward to the full — and overdue — citizenship rights for LGBTQ+ persons. This cause must be championed by people of all faiths and philosophies, and of all identities and orientations.”

“It is not about gay rights. It is about human rights.”
