    For the final episode of Making the Case, we discuss several overlapping cases all strung together by the thread of discrimination against LGBTQ+ people in the context of child welfare and other federally funded programs. Lambda Legal is fighting to protect LGBTQ+ people, to ensure children who can’t safely return home have a loving family available to care for them and to expand the meaning of safe and loving homes.

    Florida Families File Federal Lawsuit Against Law Known as "Don't Say Gay"

    Lambda Legal filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Florida enacted House Bill 1557, commonly referred to as the “Don’t Say Gay” law. The lawsuit argues that the law, which bans discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity in grades K-3 and restricts such discussions for students through grade 12 based on undefined standards of appropriateness, effectively silences and erases LGBTQ+ students and families.
