LGBT nondiscrimination protections in jobs, public accommodations and housing (item explicitly names transgender people)
Q12. Do you favor or oppose each of the following?
Laws that would protect gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people against discrimination in jobs, public accommodations, and housing.
Favor (net)
72%
Oppose (net)
21%
Wording notes: bundles transgender people with gay, lesbian and bisexual people in one item | three policy domains combined in one question (jobs, public accommodations, housing)
neutral — symmetric favor/oppose scale, no loaded terms; the design limitation is that it is double-barreled across three policy domains and four identity groups, so transgender-specific support cannot be isolated
