Ambassador Erica Barks-Ruggles, Senior Bureau Official of the Bureau of International Organization Affairs of State Department, Erica Barks-Ruggles on twitter:
— "President Joe Biden stated that we will lead by the power of our example and pursue an end to violence and discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or sex characteristics.
The UN Human Rights Council is one of the key venues where we will pursue these goals.
We believe the HRC can promote fundamental freedoms around the globe, including freedoms of expression, association and assembly, and religion or belief as well as the fundamental rights of women, girls, LGBTQI+ persons, ethnic minorities, and other marginalized communities."
