There are only a couple weeks left in the Supreme Court session, so we decided to look forward at some of the likely outcomes. We think there are a few for both the California case (Hollingsworth, et al., v. Perry, et al.) and the DOMA case (United States v. Windsor). We've outlined them in a video for you below.
So watch the video, comment on Facebook, and let us know what you think!

Anti-Discrimination Legislation Introduced in the Ohio House and Senate with Bi-Partisan Support
Update 5/15/13:
Bill numbers are S.B. 125 and H.B. 163.
COLUMBUS – Equality Ohio is happy to announce that today Representatives Ross McGregor (R-Springfield) and Nickie Antonio (D-Lakewood), and Senators Frank LaRose (R-Akron) and Michael Skindell (D-Lakewood) introduced the Equal Housing and Employment Act which will protect Ohioans from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity.
We have our eye on specific outcomes and have the plan to achieve them. For those of you in districts with legislators who are on the fence on our issues, we need you. If your legislator is already on board, you can deliver a critical thank-you. If you're not from a target district, there is still work you can do. Some of our legislators won’t meet with us! Don’t let that stop you from coming. You still have a role at lobby day - even from home.
