Four years ago today, June 15, the Supreme Court ruled in Bostock v. Clayton County, affirming that discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity has no place in the workplace. This landmark decision has been celebrated by various members of Congress, who are now advocating for the passage of the Equality Act to extend these protections to other aspects of life. Members of the Equality Caucus, including Rep. Mark Pocan, Rep. Linda Sanchez, Rep. Mike Quigley, Rep. Troy Carter, and Rep. Mark Takano, have expressed their commitment to building upon this decision and enshrining equality into law.
