Creates a permanent US envoy to advance LGBTQI+ human rights around the world.
This bill would create a permanent Special Envoy within the State Department to lead US efforts against violence and discrimination faced by LGBTQI+ people globally. It would also require more detailed reporting on these issues in annual human rights reports and set a clear US policy to protect these rights. This means a consistent US focus on these human rights, rather than relying on temporary appointments.
Today, the US has had temporary Special Envoys for LGBTQI+ human rights, but the position is not permanent. Annual human rights reports cover violations but do not specifically require detailed reporting on criminalization based on sexual orientation, gender identity, or sex characteristics. After this bill, a permanent Special Envoy would lead a clear US global strategy, and annual reports would include specific details on discriminatory laws and actions in other countries.
