Steff Yorek, the Political Secretary of Freedom Road Socialist Organization, responded to the Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality, June 26 stating, “Today the Supreme Court made marriage equality the law of the land. This is an important accomplishment in terms of LGBTQ equality and realization of a democratic demand.”

Yorek continued, “The upsurge of struggle that began with the Stonewall Rebellion has begun to bear fruit. This Pride weekend we should celebrate with all our hearts. On Monday we need to get back to work to defeat discrimination of all kinds, including employment discrimination, and redouble our efforts for transgender equality.”
