The House would encourage celebrating June as LGBTQIA+ Pride Month and say the Constitution protects LGBTQIA+ rights — no law changes.
The details
Nothing in your life would change if the House passed this resolution. It does not change any law, create any program, or spend any money. It states the House's views about LGBTQIA+ people and asks the country to celebrate June as LGBTQIA+ Pride Month. The House would say that the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual people are human rights. It would say the Constitution protects those rights. It would also say all U.S. citizens should be treated fairly and equally, no matter their sexual orientation, sex traits, or gender identity. Most of the text is a history list. It honors the 1966 Compton's Cafeteria protest in San Francisco and the 1969 Stonewall Inn protest in New York. It lists court rulings, laws, and people who were the first to hold office. It also cites violence against LGBTQIA+ people, including the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting that killed 49 people. The House would agree the country must keep working toward equality for everyone.
