“Map's key accomplishments in 2018 included: masterpiece cakeshop case. In november 2017, the u.s. Supreme court heard the masterpiece case related to a baker in colorado who discriminated against a same?sex couple seeking to purchase a wedding cake. Because of the very serious implications of losing this case, which could create a constitutional right to discriminate against lgbt people and also be used as a legal precedent to erode the civil rights act, map believes we must engage in public and base education to the extent possible. Map launched the successful national "open to all" campaign and coalition in december 2017 and has myriad of accomplishments in 2018 around the supreme court decision in the case: - managed and engaged a diverse coalition of civil rights organizations to grow the "open to all" campaign. - in partnership with the aclu, map developed messaging and public education work around the masterpiece case, adapting talking points from map's past work on how to talk about religious exemptions in service industries. - map developed a series of public education ads for the "open to all" campaign to show the longer-term implications and human cost of losing the masterpiece case. - published the "public accommodations" report that examines existing public accommodations protections for lgbt people, trends over time, efforts to undermine these policies, and how these policies would be impacted by the masterpiece case. - created meaningful infographics linked to the masterpiece case that illustrate its implications for communities including people of color, women, lgbt people, people with disabilities, minority faiths, and others. - map provided support to advocates to speak about the potential harms of state religious exemption legislation. Adoption religious exemptions toolkit- in the 2017 legislative cycle, three states passed laws that permit child service organizations to discriminate. Drawing on the public education ad that map developed for a legal challenge to such a law in michigan, as well as a policy report highlighting the harms to these laws, map developed a state communications toolkit for use by advocates in states that have such laws and in states that may be proposing similar laws. The toolkit will contain talking points, ads, policy materials, suggested advocacy/communications strategies and tactics, and op-ed templates. Supported states and cities engaged in promoting or defending public accommodations protections (repeals, proactive efforts, bathroom bans). Although not pulled together in a single toolkit due to the individual nature of these policy fights, map provided ads, policy reports, and infographics for cities and states that faced these challenges in 2018. Map also lent earned media and communications planning/messaging support. Support for transgender students and bathroom access. We expected to see more states attempt to ban restroom access for transgender students in 2018. Map worked with glsen to define a joint communications and media plan to support trans students in schools. Transgender military ban. In addition to consulting with organizations as part of the nondiscrimination communications working group and the discrimination research & analysis group (drag) when the trump administration's ban on transgender service members was announced, map worked with freedom for all americans to help organizations focus their messaging on values and appeals that resonate with conflicted audiences. State focused work: recognizing that the states are where much of the success may come for lgbt equality - as well as where advocates are pushing back against anti?lgbt legislation - map focused efforts on supporting advocates at the state level with messaging, communications, and policy materials. Preemption laws report. Realizing that preemption laws, which prevent cities and counties from passing nondiscrimination protections, have become increasingly prevalent in state legislation, this report”
