Dear Friends,

The 113th Congress served during a period of unprecedented progress for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. Despite unusual levels of partisanship and gridlock on a range of issues from immigration to gun control, members of both parties were able to come together to advance historic, LGBT-friendly legislation.

In this session, Congress passed an LGBT-inclusive reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) with a strong bipartisan majority. Though the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act and the repeal of "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell" were huge legislative milestones, the LGBT-inclusive VAWA represents the first time Congress has passed a non-discrimination law that protects LGBT Americans.

The Senate’s bipartisan passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) was another historic milestone. Thanks to the incredible leadership of the lead sponsors, Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL), the bill earned the support of a broad majority of the Senate — including 10 Republicans. Unfortunately, the bill stalled in the House of Representatives due to opposition by the chamber’s leadership.

Please note that this edition of the Congressional Scorecard also reflects whether a member of Congress supports or opposes marriage equality. With the majority of Americans living in states where marriage equality is the law of the land, no member of Congress should oppose the constitutional right of their constituents to marry the person that they love.

The LGBT community has many allies in Congress these days, but some leaders rise to the top as exceptional partners in progress. The LGBT community will lose an incredible ally as Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA) retires from Congress at the end of this session. That said, our work is made easier by tireless Republican supporters like Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) and visionary LGBT elected officials like Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) and a record seven openly LGBT members of the House of Representatives — Reps. David Cicilline (D-RI), Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY), Mike Michaud (D-ME), Mark Pocan (D-WI), Jared Polis (D-CO), Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) and Mark Takano (D-CA).

3113TH CONGRESS

Because of the anti-equality majority in the House of Representatives, progress on key priorities like combating bullying and discrimination in schools and repealing the remaining portions of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) was stymied. As we fight to make new progress, we need leaders and allies, now more than ever. This Congressional Scorecard documents what true leadership looks like, and also how Congress lags behind the American people on equality issues. It’s our hope that the Scorecard will serve as a tool for pro-equality advocates to see where their elected officials stand and inspire new leaders to stand with us in the future.

Yours,

Chad Griffin President Human Rights Campaign
