Tennessee Loves Target

ellyahnnaTarget.jpgTarget's trans-inclusive policies are under attack in Tennessee.  A Mt Juliet pastor's rant went viral and this week at a Hendersonville Target, protesters shouted religious wrath at employees and customers.  But we know that Tennessee loves Target and it's time to show it!

As former TEP Board member Ellyahnna Hall (pictured) notes:  

"I support Target for trying to provide a safe space for all people. I'm a trans woman and I've faced the dangers of not having access to restrooms that corespond to my gender identity. If opponents are really concerned with safety then let's focus on tougher rape laws and enforcing those, not creating a fake danger that doesn't exist."

Sign the petition statement and show Target some love.  We'll deliver hard copies of the petition to select Target locations in Tennessee.


                            

Tennessee loves Target.  I support the company's transgender-inclusive policies and I will continue to shop at their stores.

    I’m happy to shop at Target often and I appreciate your support of diversity and inclusion. Though I understand your policy is not actually a new policy, I am sorry a few in the Middle TN community feel like they need to boycott a great corporation for their stand on equality. Thank you for doing what’s right!

    Thank you, Target, for standing up to the religious zealots who threaten the freedoms my ancestors came to this country and fought for.

    I support less government trying to take away rights and micromanaging people including where we go to the restroom! Protect rights of all people!


    I support and am thankful for Target and their willingness to take a stand! Thank you!
