LGBT Rights In Utah
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people in Utah experience some legal challenges which are not experienced by non-LGBT people. Same-sex sexual activity is legal in the state, but same-sex couples and the families that they head are ineligible for the protections that are available to opposite-sex couples. Most LGBT people in the state are protected against employment and housing discrimination. Most LGBT students in the state are protected against higher-education discrimination.

Famous quotes containing the word rights:
“It seemed like this was one big Prozac nation, one big mess of malaise. Perhaps the next time half a million people gather for a protest march on the White House green it will not be for abortion rights or gay liberation, but because we’re all so bummed out.”
—Elizabeth Wurtzel, U.S. author. Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America, p. 298, Houghton Mifflin (1994)
