As #COVIDー19 continues to spread, our work has never been more dire.
Some of what we're up to:
Teaming up with @DemocracyFwd, @family_equality, @TrueColorsUnite & @sageusa in suing the Trump administration to protect people from medical discrimination.

We urged TX @GovAbbott to expand state Medicaid coverage to ensure all uninsured Texans can access critical testing and other medical services during this time. #GivingTuesdayNow lambdalegal.org/blog/20200424_…

We fought alongside @IEquality and achieved the release from @ICEgov detention of 2 asylum-seekers living with #HIV. #GivingTuesdayNow

We built and released this essential Know Your Rights guide on #COVIDー19 and #HIV with @AIDSadvocacy. #GivingTuesdayNow lambdalegal.org/covid19-hiv

We compiled this resource document and guide for #LGBTQ employees (those still working, and those who have been furloughed or laid-off) in the #COVIDー19 pandemic. #GivingTuesdayNow

We're calling on prisons, jails, and detention centers to reduce #COVIDー19 risk by taking measures including releasing detainees and incarcerated people. #GivingTuesdayNow lambdalegal.org/blog/20200501_…

We joined in organizing on several letters calling for immediate action within the criminal justice system to reduce #COVIDー19 risks.
