Derek and Jonathan live for the small joys in life—like their little girl, Simone, dressing up as Baby Shark for Halloween. Her fathers try to savor these moments even as they endure the stress of their legal battle against the U.S. State Department.
This is a fight for marriage equality, and it's a fight for who is considered a U.S. citizen. Derek and Jonathan are citizens, their daughter is a citizen, and they should enjoy all the rights granted to them under the Constitution.
