  1. #Biden signs the #RespectForMarriageAct into law

    Despite Tuesday's excitement, there was concern about the nationwide proliferation of conservative policies on #gender issues at the state level.

    Biden criticized the "callous, cynical laws introduced in the states targeting #transgender children, terrifying families and criminalizing doctors who give children the care they need."

  2. President Biden has signed the #RespectForMarriageAct into law, which codifies federal protections for same-sex and interracial marriages.

    Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle passed the bill last week, motivated by the possibility SCOTUS could overturn marriage rights following comments from Justice Clarence Thomas after Roe v. Wade was overturned.

  3. #PresidentBiden just signed the #RespectforMarriageAct. Tomorrow everyone can tell us how limited the measure is, how far we have yet to go. But today I wept for the #marriagepioneers of #interracialmarriage (yes, finally encoded in law as legal) and of #gayandlesbianmarriage. This moment was unimaginable even 15 years ago, as were the President’s words.
