Concerning legislator legislation to promote understanding of LGBT people, Izumi, leader of the Constitutional Democratic Party, criticized some of the Liberal Democratic Party for seeking to revise the wording that "discrimination is unacceptable." , He showed his intention to aim not only for the understanding promotion law but also for the enactment of the discrimination elimination law.
Within the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), there is a move to revise the phrase "discrimination is unacceptable" included in the law to promote understanding of LGBT people.
Regarding this, Izumi, the representative of the Constitutional Democratic Party, said at a press conference, "The recognition is quite late. The bill does not state that discrimination is prohibited and penalties are set, and the principle is that 'discrimination is not allowed.' I want you to drink it," he criticized.
On top of that, ``The Constitutional Democratic Party is appealing for the enactment of a law to eliminate discrimination, and their attitude is that the understanding promotion law is not enough. It is the reality of the world today that there are people who suffer from it," he said, stating that he would aim to enact not only the Law for Promotion of Understanding but also the Elimination of Discrimination Law.
