MEI 2023: See Your Cities' Scores

Produced by the HRC Foundation
Map of various types of towns and cities with text on the left that reads "See your City's Score" with a small rectangle below with the website that reads "HRC.og/MEI" and the HRC equality logo on the top right with the Equality Federation logo next to it.

HRC's Municipal Equality Index (MEI) demonstrates the ways that many cities can — and do — support the LGBTQ+ people who live and work there, even where states and the federal government have failed to do so. Unfortunately, many of the anti-LGBTQ+ state laws enacted this year negated or overrode positive efforts several cities have made over the years, especially in regard to cities offering inclusive health care policies for transgender employees or transgender family members of employees.

We have noted states that have impacted cities' ability to provide such benefits with 'State of Emergency.' For more information regarding our state of emergency, please visit our report entitled: LGBTQ+ Americans Under Attack.
