Masterpiece Cakeshop: Huge LGBTQ Equality Case at Supreme Court

By Rebecca Isaacs, Executive Director, Equality Federation

Today the Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments in Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. It’s one of the most significant LGBTQ equality cases, and perhaps civil rights cases, of our lifetimes. A loss could gut decades of work to secure nondiscrimination protections.

Please read and share the piece I published on HuffingtonPost. It features the story of a child who was denied care at the dentist because she had two moms. By educating your friends and family about what this case is really about (hint: not cakes!) you’ll help us elevate our values and discredit the opposition.

No matter what happens in this case, Equality Federation will continue fighting for fairness and justice in every community we call home, and we are proud you are a part of this movement!
