Hurray! An important step toward affirmation and equality for our transgender family. Thanks to the brave souls who pressed this issue and to @acluohio and @LambdaLegal for their continued excellent work! #TransLivesMatter

[ACLU of Ohio @acluohio]

JUST IN: A federal judge struck down a discriminatory policy that prevented transgender people born in Ohio from correcting the gender marker on their birth certificates. This is a huge victory for the LGBTQ community in every way.🏳️‍⚧️🥳 @ACLU @LambdaLegal https://t.co/4bsxIUhDkp

We have been following this case and often reference it in our cultural competence training. Thrilled to see they have received some compensation, yet it doesn’t solve the larger problem of discrimination in senior living communities. #lgbtqaging https://t.co/8HtKxEyrKh

[Rainbow Elder Care @LGBTElderCare]

On #WorldAIDSDay2020 It’s important to never forget the horror of what we went through and how many we have lost, yet also honor those living with AIDS. Best way to honor is to know your HIV status to help end AIDS and HIV. https://t.co/OTYT2nIJBF

[Lambda Legal @LambdaLegal]

The Supreme Court argument in Fulton v City of Philly has concluded.

This case may be about whether publicly funded foster agencies can discriminate against LGBTQ parents, but its impact could reach much farther—including to seniors.
