Your Senator or Representative Name
To the Members of the Massachusetts Legislature: On behalf of Organization/Business Name, I am writing in support of "An Act Relative to Transgender Equal Rights," which has been introduced by Representatives Carl Sciortino and Byron Rushing. We believe that this legislation is compatible with our purpose as an organization and with good business practice with regard to the treatment of employees, clients, stakeholders, and the general public. This legislation would also help guide our own employment and client services policies by making clear what our rights and responsibilities are. The Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) has already interpreted state law to protect all people, including transgender persons, from discrimination based on gender identity or expression. By making this protection explicit, uniform and clearly visible in the law, it is easier for us to design policies that follow the law.
As a Massachusetts-based business that is committed to the well-being of the residents of our state, Organization Name urges you to support this legislation.
Sincerely,
Your Name
