Discrimination based on race, religion, sexuality, age, disability, income, and gender happens on a daily basis, and we will fight to end it. We, the democratic party, believe that everyone is created equal and entitled to their civil rights. Our party fully supports the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. We will also fight for fair housing, equal pay, and keeping marriage laws at the state level so that there can be no federal gay marriage ban. Also, we support the rights and freedoms of churches and religious beings to decide how to administer marriage without government interference. We will fight against race and religious profiling. Some parts of the Patriot Act could be strengthened so that our individual rights, like the library provisions, are no longer threatened. We will do our best to support our veterans in making sure they are employed and are in good living conditions.
