\u201cOur victory is the result of decades of tireless work on the part of our ancestors. This #SCOTUS decision that maintains LGBTQ protections in the workplace is because of Black and brown trans people shifting policy and culture despite so much violence. \nhttps://t.co/infu7YUl67\u201d

\u201cHuge news: #SCOTUS affirms that sexual orientation and gender identity discrimination are prohibited under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. This is a landmark victory for #LGBTQ equality.\u201d

\u201cThe decision gives us hope that as a country we can unite for the common good and continue the fight for LGBTQ acceptance.\u201d

\u201cA major victory for LGBTQ+ rights. No one should be discriminated against because of who they are or who they love.\u201d

\u201cI genuinely think this is a full win. We fully won. The HHS rule is completely void.\u201d

\u201cI am beyond thrilled SCOTUS ruled the correct way in the Stephens, Bostock and Zarda cases! \n \nTitle VII of the Civil Rights Act applies to the trans, bi and SGL community \n\nHuge SCOTUS rights win for the TBLGQ community!\n#TransRightsAreHumanRights #SCOTUS\u201d

\u201cIn a dark time for our country, today's landmark SCOTUS ruling will help to protect the many #LGBTQ educators in K-12 schools who have faced harassment or job loss simply because of who they are. https://t.co/fuSKuItllo\u201d

\u201cThe #SCOTUS 6-3 decision is a huge step forward for #LGBTQ equality in America.\n\nWe must keep marching for full equality for every #LGBTQ American across our country and work to pass the #EqualityAct in the Senate. \ud83c\udff3\ufe0f\u200d\ud83c\udf08\u201d

\u201cNo matter who you are or who you love your work is valued in the United States. Thank you to the Supreme Court for making the right decision for equality, inclusivity, and for a more resilient economy. Happy Pride!\u201d

\u201cMake no mistake\u2014a federal Equality Act is still urgently needed. The struggle for equality did not end with marriage, nor did it end today. Conversion therapy persists. Black trans women are at grave risk daily. The administration is rolling back protections at every turn.\u201d

\u201cA victory hard won in the courts & on the streets. Grateful to the lawyers, organizers & activists but most grateful to those who had to live stealth or closeted, who lost jobs for living their truth, who left parts of themselves at their employers door. https://t.co/4aaSZBOlbz\u201d

\u201cSo Many attacks ( removals/ restrictions or revocations )on our lgbt rights ( existence) that this ruling is a major victory toward full protection. The fight continues tomorrow #wearehere #WeAreHereWeAreLGBTQ\u201d

\u201cso used to being on the losing end of this shit, had re-read that the word "transgender" was actually included. this is nice and good. but back to the fight. stop killing of black trans women!\u201d

\u201cThe LGBTQ civil rights movement began 51 years ago with the Stonewall Riots, led by trans POC heroes. Today we mark another milestone in our struggle for equality with a victory in the Supreme Court, extending Title VII nondiscrimination protections to LGBTQs.\n\nO happy day!\u201d
