Garden State Equality Action Fund commends Republican Mike DuHaime for speaking out against House GOP’s transphobic policy

We commend Mike DuHaime for speaking out against the baffling and mean-spirited actions of House Republicans to prioritize bathroom access restrictions over the pressing needs of the American people.

As Mike points out, this move does not reflect the values of many Republicans in New Jersey, a state that has a proud history of bipartisan support for LGBTQ+ rights. New Jersey has led the way in protecting transgender individuals and ensuring everyone has equal access to public spaces.

This policy is not only a misuse of power but also a glaring attempt to divide and distract. At a time when families are seeking solutions to economic challenges, healthcare needs, and safety concerns, it is troubling to see Congress prioritize something so discriminatory.

We call on Republicans to join Mike DeHaime in rejecting this harmful rhetoric. Equality isn’t partisan—it’s fundamental American value. Garden State Equality stands ready to work with anyone committed to equality and progress for all. And for those stuck on discrimination—stop wasting energy on division and focus on the real issues that matter to Americans.
