Transphobic, Anti-Abortion Policies Harm Religious Freedom

The Public Religion Research Institute recently highlighted an important statistic: nearly all Unitarian Universalists (97 percent) support nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQIA+ people. It's a similar story for reproductive rights -- according to the Pew Research Center, 90 percent of Unitarian Universalists (UUs) support keeping abortion legal in all or most cases. When nearly the entirety of a people believes in affirming their LGBTQIA+ neighbors or supporting reproductive justice, these should be taken as central teachings of our faith.
