Equality
Amid an extremist Supreme Court majority, Congresswoman Crockett is determined to file and pass safeguards for the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community. Crockett works to protect our nation’s most vulnerable individuals and is fighting to protect same sex marriage, LGBTQIA+ identifying children in schools and fighting against employment discrimination. In the ever-continued pursuit of justice, Crockett demands that discrimination and bigotry in any form are treated as crimes.
