Navigating the Rollbacks in Protection of Reproductive and LGBTQI+ Rights in the United States

This new report from BSR is a practical resource for financial institutions and anyone seeking to engage them on reproductive and LGBTQI+ rights in the US context. The report explores the rollbacks of human rights protections across the US; explains how financial institutions may impact abortion and LGBTQI+ rights (specifically discussing data practices, handling of law enforcement requests, lobbying efforts, inequitable provision of financial services, and other potential impacts); highlights the material risks that result from failing to respect reproductive and LGBTQI+ rights; and provides a 5-step principles-based approach (and case studies) for navigating compliance with the law while respecting human rights.

Although created for financial institutions, the topic is relevant to organisations in all sectors, and much of the content is industry agnostic.
