"As we celebrate the
SCOTUS ruling on
DOMA
– and celebration is definitely in order – I think that it's important
to remember that trans people can still be fired in the majority of
states just for being trans, that gay and lesbian people can be fired in
the majority of states just for being gay or lesbian, that same-sex
couples cannot be legally married in all but a handful of states, and
that
SCOTUS also took a giant leap back in time
with its ruling on the Voting Rights Act. We are so far from
across-the-board equality in this country that you can't even see it
from here."
