Being intersex is more common than you'd think. intersex people often face discrimination, harmful medical practices, violence, and social stigma solely based on their sex characteristics and must be protected and treated equally. #Intersexawarnessday

BREAKING: A federal court just issued a restraining order on the federal agents in Portland, Oregon. We said we would deploy the full firepower of the ACLU in this fight to save our democracy — and we meant it.

BREAKING: Aimee Stephens, Don Zarda, and Gerald Bostock won! The Supreme Court ruled that it was against the law to fire our clients for being LGBTQ. There is no question: LGBTQ people are protected from discrimination in the workplace.

With heavy hearts, we share that Aimee Stephens, our client and dear friend, whose landmark case is the first about the civil rights of transgender people to be heard by the Supreme Court, died today at home in Metro Detroit with her wife, Donna Stephens, at her side. She was 59.

Those who met Aimee Stephens know that her power was in her humbleness and sincerity. She has been an inspiration to millions of people around the world. We mourn with Aimee's wife Donna, their daughter Elizabeth, and all of you. And we honor her life by fighting onward.

Nothing has changed—the Affordable Care Act STILL protects all LGBTQ people from discrimination in health insurance and health care. Enroll now at HealthCare.gov before the DEC. 15 DEADLINE. #KnowYourRights and #GetCovered @MaineTransNet @EqualityMaine
