All the while, millions of Americans are struggling to meet their basic needs.

An April 14 vote is scheduled on concurrence with the Senate version of "bathroom bill" H.4756 which includes amendments that are harmful to trans children and adults. The Senate version allows schools to substitute a single outdoor portable restroom (“Porta Potty”) anywhere on the school campus for that single user facility in each school building. Non-concurrence in the House would send this bill to a conference committee where these very harmful provisions can be removed. Contact your House member to vote NOT to concur with the Senate version.
