[ARCHIVED] Statement from Drucker Regarding SCOTUS Ruling Establishing Workplace Protection for LGBTQ Americans

“No one should face discrimination based on their sexual orientation or gender identity - or for any other reason.

Through its interpretation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Supreme Court has unequivocally - and correctly - affirmed that every American is entitled to the dignity of a workplace that is free of discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation or gender identity.

This represents a monumental step forward in a campaign for equality that began at Stonewall nearly 51 years ago. As a proud ally to the LGBTQ community, I am thrilled by this ruling and the legal precedent it establishes.”
