National Center for Transgender Equality
John,
The news from this week has been heartbreaking. Aimee Stephens, the
first transgender woman to have a civil rights complaint heard by the
Supreme Court, passed away on Tuesday.
Aimee took action after her employer fired her for being transgender.
Soon, the Supreme Court will decide if Aimee's former employer
violated her civil rights, and Aimee's case could set the
standard for workplace protections.
Aimee's fight for basic fairness under the law is a milestone
for the entire transgender community. When the Supreme Court releases
its decision on this case I hope that you will join us for a virtual
rally and townhall.

We will notify you as soon as we have a decision from the Supreme
Court about Aimee's case and the other two cases related to
discrimination against LGBTQ workers.

These events are an opportunity to come together as a community when
the Court hands down their decision on three consequential cases that
will impact the lives of LGBTQ people across our country.
The #DecisionDay rally will be a chance for us to gather together to
react and support each other, while the town hall will feature experts
providing analysis of the opinion, how it will affect our lives, and
what still needs to be done.
Do you want to be a part of this momentous day? RSVP today.
