For LGBT people outside U.S. Supreme Court, cases have a familiar ring
WASHINGTON, Oct 8 - For many of the activists who demonstrated outside the U.S. Supreme Court during arguments in major gay and transgender rights cases on Tuesday, the story told inside about plaintiffs Gerald Bostock and Aimee Stephens sounded all too familiar.
"My manager would tell my customers, 'You know that's a man, that's not a woman,'" said Zannell, now a transgender justice campaign manager at the American Civil Liberties Union."I was discriminated against in my job, I was fired, I became homeless, I had to engage in survival sex work.
President Donald Trump's administration has argued that the law at issue does not cover sexual orientation or gender identity. A small group of demonstrators opposing LGBT rights held signs such as"Fear God" and"Sin and shame, not pride."
