PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- National and local LGBT leaders took a stand in Philadelphia Wednesday, calling on senators to reject Trump's pick for attorney general.

They say Sen. Jeff Sessions has a track record of hostility toward LGBT people, as well as other minorities.

The group called on all lawmakers, including Sens. Bob Casey and Pat Toomey, to block Sessions' nomination.
