The letter doesn’t name President Donald Trump specifically, however it tends to an ongoing New York Times report that uncovered the organization’s supposed plans to make a more tight meaning of sexual orientation.
It peruses:
We, the undersigned businesses, stand with the millions of people in America who identify as transgender, gender non-binary, or intersex, and call for all such people to be treated with the respect and dignity everyone deserves.
We oppose any administrative and legislative efforts to erase transgender protections through the reinterpretation of existing laws and regulations. We also fundamentally oppose any policy or regulation that violates the privacy rights of those that identify as transgender, gender non-binary, or intersex.
The organizations ― which additionally incorporated some worldwide organizations, for example, Deutsche Bank and the Royal Bank of Canada ― required the organization to show “regard and straightforwardness” when drawing up arrangements, “and for full uniformity under the law.”
The organizations who marked the letter, distinguished as Business for Trans Equality, speak to more than $2.4 trillion in yearly income, as indicated by the underwriters. They take note of that “assorted variety and incorporation are useful for business, and that segregation fundamentally hurts transgender individuals and forces profitability costs.”
“Balance is definitely not a privilege for a few, however for all,” Elizabeth Wood, Levi Strauss and Co. Boss Human Resources Officer, said in the letter.
“Official activities and laws that permit separation disintegrate our capacity to cultivate energetic, aggressive workforces, which ends development, innovativeness, and advancement,” she included. “Our working environments and networks must be different and inviting for all individuals, paying little heed to race, sex, national starting point, ethnicity, religion, age, inability, sexual introduction or sex character.”
As per a draft notice from the Department of Health and Human Services, acquired by the Times, the organization is thinking about limiting the meaning of sexual orientation to be found on a man’s genitalia during childbirth.
The legal redefinition would essentially exclude transgender and nonbinary people from civil rights protections by having the government declare that there is no such thing as “transgender.”
