Today marks eight years since the Supreme Court decision Obergefell v. Hodges allowed for LGBTQ+ marriage to stand as the law of the land. However, in last year's Dobbs v. Jackson decision, it was made clear that individual rights are under attack.

In the Dobbs v. Jackson decision, Clarence Thomas used the reasoning to call into question the validity of the Obergefell case. In renouncing the right to privacy and personal freedoms, the right to marry the one you love may be the next thing stripped away from Americans.
While the GOP has used rhetoric claiming their want to "protect rights," it is clear that those in the LGBTQ+ community are targeted and used as a scapegoat for their attacks. We've witnessed the fall of Roe with this conservative majority in the Supreme Court. We cannot see more decades of progress undone.
John, help us to support the LGBTQ+ community by electing those that will fight for their rights and push back against extremism and bigotry. |
