Take Action: Stop HB 300 and the Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity (SOGI) Agenda in Pennsylvania 

Bad laws begin with bad ideas. When the government rejects the objective truth about biology, it creates confusion that harms people — in schools, shelters, sports, workplaces, and everyday life. 

That’s exactly what’s happening right now in Harrisburg. 

HB 300 (along with a host of other dangerous SOGI bills) is the latest threat to religious liberty in Pennsylvania. It’s ironically been called the “Fairness Act.” 

Despite its name, HB 300 is anything but fair. 

This proposal would rewrite Pennsylvania’s Human Relations Act to add “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” as protected classes. Because it applies broadly to employment, housing, and public accommodations, it would impact schools, ministries, businesses, health care providers, recreational facilities, swimming pools, and other shared public spaces across the Commonwealth. Places you visit every day. 

We’ve already seen how laws like this play out in other states. 

In Virginia, a teacher named Peter Vlaming was fired from his job for refusing to use a gender-confused student’s pronouns due to laws like HB 300. He attempted to be accommodating by avoiding the use of any pronouns, but he was still punished for living his faith and remaining true to his convictions about biological reality.  

Situations like this happen because of laws like HB 300. 

Pennsylvania is the only state in the Northeast that hasn’t yet added sexual orientation and gender identity to its non-discrimination laws. This is common sense, and we should continue to say no.  

If passed, HB 300 could be used to: 

➡️ Punish churches, ministries, and Christian schools for hiring staff who share their beliefs about human sexuality. 
➡️ Expose faith-based employers to lawsuits for living out their convictions 
➡️ Open women’s shelters, locker rooms, dorms, swimming pools, and other public facilities to biological men 
➡️ Force women’s sports teams to allow biological males to compete against women 
➡️ Pressure medical professionals to violate their conscience or face penalties 
➡️ Create new legal threats for Christian business owners who simply want to live and work according to their faith 

HB 300 is not alone. Democrat lawmakers are also pushing through: 
 
➡️ HB 1800, which rewrites Pennsylvania’s marriage law, erasing the truth about marriage between one man and one woman. 
➡️ HB 1315, which seals name-change records tied to subjective “gender identity,” prioritizing secrecy over accountability and the rule of law. 
➡️ HB 632, which weakens accountability in prostitution laws and confuses justice with moral neutrality. 
➡️ HB 1902, which embeds “gender identity” ideology into Pennsylvania’s hate-crime law and government training, pressuring citizens and institutions to treat subjective identity as a legal reality. 
➡️ HB 1905, which expands Pennsylvania’s intimidation and civil rights laws to include “gender identity” and “gender expression,” increasing legal risk for those who affirm biological reality in sex. 

Legislators are pushing these bills quickly because it appeals to their activist donors. If it passes the House on a largely partisan vote, the Pennsylvania Senate is unlikely to advance it, which means now is the time for legislators to hear from concerned citizens. 

HB 300 and the SOGI agenda would force gender ideology into Pennsylvania law, forcing out common sense and objective reality. 

We need you to speak up today and urge your lawmakers to reject this harmful legislation.
