[Anna Brown OAM @AnnaEquality]

We stand with women, people with disabilities, LGBTIQ+ people, people of faith, particularly minority faiths, and community organisations across Australia to call on our parliament to reject the #ReligiousDiscriminationBill and ensure our laws protect all of us, equally 🌈

[Equality Australia 🌈 @EqualityAu]

It’s been four years today since Australia voted YES! 🏳️‍🌈💍👩‍❤️‍👩👨‍❤️‍👨

The day the results of the marriage equality postal vote were announced was an historic moment in the movement for LGBTIQ+ equality, but there’s so much more to do.

[Senator Nita Green @nitagreenqld]

You don’t meet people like Thomas very often. They leave an indelible mark on you. I met Thomas when he was 17 and leading our ⁦@AMEquality⁩ ⁦@EqualityAu⁩ volunteers in Toowoomba. He was brave, bold and bright. This is just so very sad. https://t.co/dQczrhlKDn

[Peter Black (he/him) @peterjblack]

Thomas was an extraordinary young man with an energy and passion for equality was that contagious. I was honoured to work alongside him during the Equality Campaign. And long after his tragic passing, his bravery and commitment will continue to inspire me. https://t.co/SS1OBdXOwo

[AU Marriage Equality @AMEquality]

He leaves a lasting legacy for which we are immensely grateful. Our deepest sympathies and thoughts are with his mum Jo, friends and entire community.

Vale Thomas Coyne, Toowoomba marriage equality campaigner and local hero.

Thomas represented the heart and soul of the marriage equality movement. https://t.co/nAQmdoBCG4

[AU Marriage Equality @AMEquality]

He was instrumental in leading the Toowoomba YES campaign and worked tirelessly as an advocate for equality in his community. Thomas was one of the many inspirational young people across the nation who worked with their communities to shape a better future for us all.
