Bill Summary

AI Summary
This resolution supports the designation of June 26 as "LGBTQI+ Equality Day" to commemorate significant Supreme Court decisions that advanced LGBTQI+ rights, including Lawrence v. Texas (2003), United States v. Windsor (2013), and Obergefell v. Hodges (2015). The resolution recognizes the ongoing struggles of LGBTQI+ individuals, particularly transgender people and people of color, who continue to face barriers such as discrimination, violence, and societal isolation. It formally supports equal rights and protections for all people, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or sex characteristics, and encourages the celebration of LGBTQI+ Equality Day as an opportunity to educate people about ongoing discrimination. The resolution also acknowledges the need for additional legislative reforms to ensure LGBTQI+ individuals have full protection from discrimination in areas including employment, housing, public accommodations, education, federal funding, credit, and jury service, demonstrating a commitment to achieving comprehensive equality under the law.
