Gov. Dan Patrick led the crusade for a state law to regulate bathroom use for transgender Texans--an initiative that resonated with social conservatives, including many pastors, who backed him up. Patrick for months stood firm in his pursuit for a bathroom bill even while similar campaigns in other states fizzled out. He was met by loud opposition that only grew with time and eventually proved to be a considerable political force." (Texas Tribune,2017)

Diversity training is often used for people of different races and national origins, but diversity in the workplace and at school also includes LGBT people. An optional sensitivity training class is a way for workers and students to become more knowledgeable about the LGBT community and recognize discriminatory practices.]]> 2017-11-06 14:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/2243001/7wdw4v5crx1/wish/203875913 2243001 https://padlet.com/2243001/7wdw4v5crx1/wish/203877730 Open the floor to those who are LGBT and ask them how they feel about the company or school environment. Do they feel as if their concerns as an LGBT person are being addressed? Have they ever felt discriminated against? If so, ask them about what happened and what they think can be done in order to help this situation so it doesn't affect anyone else. If they don't feel comfortable speaking publicly about their experiences, you can allow them to make an anonymous submission.]]> 2017-11-06 14:12:32 UTC https://padlet.com/2243001/7wdw4v5crx1/wish/203877730
