TO: SWEDISH PRIME MINISTER FREDRIK REINFELDT

We ask you to defend the fundamental human rights of ALL Swedish citizens, and do everything in your power to eliminate Sweden’s outdated “forced sterilization” law.

The majority of Parliament is in favor of the law’s removal – but progress is being thwarted by a small conservative party. As the elected leader of a country that rightfully takes pride in its human rights record, it’s time to stand on the right side of history – and break the deadlock.

26,930 people support this campaign. Help us get to 35,000.
If you are a transgender person in Sweden today looking to legally change your gender, in the 21st century you are still forced to undergo surgery that will render you permanently infertile and forever unable to have children. This barbaric practice of forced sterilizations has to stop!

The majority of the Swedish parliament is in favor of modifying this law – but up until now Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt has let a small conservative party block this long awaited reform.

Let’s make sure the Prime Minister knows that the majority of Sweden, and Europe – wants to see Sweden on the right side of history – by eliminating this archaic practice.

Please take one minute to sign this urgent letter to the Prime Minister of Sweden asking him to stop playing politics with the fundamental human rights of Swedish citizens. Our friends at RFSL, the Swedish LGBT Federation, will deliver your signatures directly to the Prime Minister’s office.
