Expressing support for the designation of June 26 as "LGBTQI+ Equality Day".
This resolution (HRES 549) is a non-binding House measure expressing support for designating June 26 as "LGBTQI+ Equality Day." It commemorates three landmark Supreme Court rulings on June 26 (2003, 2013, and 2015) that ended criminalization of same-sex intimacy, struck down marriage discrimination, and established marriage equality. The resolution encourages public celebration of this day to honor these milestones and educate about ongoing discrimination faced by LGBTQI+ communities. It also acknowledges the need for future legislation to address discrimination in areas like employment, housing, and public accommodations. As a symbolic resolution, it does not create new legal requirements but formally recognizes these historical court decisions.
