Go, TUCP push law vs sex discrimination

SEN. Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go has joined organized labor and other caused-oriented groups in pushing for a law that will grant equal protection rights to people with different sexual orientation and gender identity.

Go and the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), among other groups, expressed their full support to the proposed Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Expression (Sogie) Equality bill, which the Senate tackled following an incident involving Gretchen Diez, a transgender woman, at a Quezon City mall.
