In Springfield, MO, you can still be fired, denied housing, and denied access to public accommodations and services simply for your sexual orientation and gender identity. In order to protect lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and ally citizens, Springfield must add sexual orientation and gender identity to the current nondiscrimination ordinance in regards to employment, housing, and public accommodations.

Sign this petition to show your support for nondiscrimination protections for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community in Springfield. And most importantly, if you have faced discrimination anywhere in Missouri in employment, housing, or public accommodations, please fill out this form and return it to the Attorney General's office. While this form does not begin an investigation, your story will collect vital data that will prove to cities and the state that these protections are necessary and that discrimination is a part of life for many LGBT Missourians.

If your city would like more information about updating their nondiscrimination ordinances to include sexual orientation and gender identity, please contact PROMO at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
