For Missourians...let it sink in that conservative members on the U S Supreme Court today did what Republicans in Jefferson City refused to do. They have continually embraced that it was ok in our state to fire someone just because they were gay. No more. Thank goodness.

The 6-3 ruling, which also protects transgender people from discrimination in employment, is a resounding victory for LGBT rights. Trump appointee Neil Gorsuch wrote the opinion and Justices Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas dissented. https://t.co/DYbgsHlNmW

Trump on the LGBT ruling: "They've ruled. I've read the decision. And some people were surprised. But they've ruled and we live with their decision. That's what it's all about. We live with the decision of the Supreme Court. Very powerful. A very powerful decision, actually."
