Ined, the stggle for marriage equaly for gay and lbian upl has ma great stris, gog om a handful of stat only a year ago which gay and lbian people are able to marry to an astoundg 35 stat at prent.

This is amazg progrs nsirg that marriage equaly the first state was achieved srcely more than a there is still much work to be done to ensure that gay, lbian, bisexual, and transgenr (LGBT) people are regnized as full cizens of this untry wh all the rights and protectns that cizenship ually btows.

In 14 of those stat which a gay or lbian person is allowed to marry the person they love, one n get married on Sunday and be fired om his or her job on Monday morng—for the simple reason of beg gay, wh no employment protectn or reurse the Center for Amerin Progrs has jt released an exhstive report on the state of LGBT rights Ameri as they perta to public acmodatn, accs to cred, employment protectn and the like.
In most stat, lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr, or LGBT, Amerins currently lack explic protectns agast discrimatn employment, hog, tn, cred, and public acmodatns. ”The discrimatory practic have real effects on real people, and they go far beyond bakeri refg to provi weddg k for weddgs of gay people, based on their “relig” beliefs. Homels LGBT youth (who make up a hugely disproportnate 40 percent share of the youth homels populatn) are often separated om their peers by the homels shelters where they seek refuge, and one Michigan facily even required them to wear orange clothg to intify and separate them om other rints the average Amerins thk of gay upl, they ually have md two whe, gay men, each earng a good salary, wh ltle to worry about beyond where to have bnch on Sunday.
And as bad as might be for gay or lbian people, the discrimatn is markedly worse for transgenr people.
