Paying an Unfair Price: The Financial Penalty for LGBT Women in America, a new report authored by MAP and the Center for American Progress. The report was produced with a coalition of advocacy and research organization partners (including the National LGBTQ Task Force), and it paints a bleak picture for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender women.
LGBT women are one of the groups the most likely to live in poverty. They face lower pay, frequent harassment, compromised access to health care and heightened violence, all due to discriminatory laws.
