“June may be LGBT Pride month. Back home in San Diego we continue to celebrate well into July, and we sure have something to be proud of this year. The Supreme Court finally affirmed what all of us know to be true, that love is love, that equality is for everyone, and that discrimination against one is discrimination against all. Without knowing the outcome of the Supreme Court decision, but knowing that all are created equal, San Diego Pride appropriately chose this year's theme as ``Liberty and Justice for All.'' As we continue to push toward that goal, we can't forget that there is more to be done. LGBT individuals still do not have workplace or housing protections in many States. Many LGBT students aren't protected from bullying in schools, and transgender individuals, in particular, face added obstacles that arise from stigma and ignorance. So while we have much to be proud of, there is still work for this House to do. Let's come together to ensure that truly there is liberty and justice for all. ____________________”
