We Take Pride in Our LGBTQIA+ Riders & Employees

Show your Pride at hundreds of celebrations across the country and get there with Amtrak. Our convenient downtown-to-downtown service allows you to skip the traffic and avoid the hassles of flying. Don’t forget to check out the other Pride events taking place throughout the year. 

You can travel with all your besties to save up to 60% off with Share Fares, and ride with pride. This year, we’ll be at DC’s Capital Pride festival again. Come stop by and meet our Pride Employee Resource Group and Amtrak allies, as we celebrate Pride in the Nation’s Capital!

Amtrak is Recognized by the Human Rights Campaign for Workplace Equality

In 2023, Amtrak received acknowledgement for its efforts to support the LGBTQ+ community by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. This recognition is the result of Amtrak's efforts to foster a diverse workplace where we strive to make all employees feel valued and included.

Amtrak received a score of 100 out of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2023 Corporate Equality Index (CEI); the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey and report measures corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality and inclusion.

The results of the 2023-2024 CEI recognizes and celebrates 1,384 companies that promote LGBTQ+-friendly workplace policies. In 2002, the first year of the CEI, only 13 companies achieved a top score, demonstrating the incredible 20-year impact the CEI has on the business world. This year’s CEI reflects growth across every measurement category.

Amtrak currently has several employee resource groups, including Express Pride for members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies.
