Ill. Gov. Pritzker: Republicans Are Coming After Marriage Equality Next

‘They’re coming after employment and housing protections for marginalized and minority communities’

EXCERPT:

PRITZKER: "Well, you know, you’re right to ask this question because this is far beyond just an attack on women’s rights and women’s reproductive rights in particular. They’re coming after marriage equality next. They’re coming after birth control. They’re coming after employment and housing protections for marginalized and minority communities. Honestly, I’ve never seen a more virulent attack on people's rights than is occurring over the last couple of years and now culminating with this first decision. But you can see more cases that Republicans in other states are attempting to take to the Supreme Court so that they can reverse rights that seem to have been established now for decades, if not for half a century."
