Hate has no home in Northern Michigan. Please do not support this Traverse City salon and continue speaking out against uninformed bigotry every time it rears it’s head in our community (or yours). advocate.com/business/michig…

"The stakes in this election could not be higher... This is not the time in order to experiment. This is not the time to play around on the margins... There is no third party candidate that will win this election."

Dear Media: Please don't forget the mistakes of how y'all covered the 2016 election. Also, feel free to review that whole pre-World War II era/rise of fascism. I just saw @abcnews refer to Moms For Liberty as "joyful warriors" - they are an extremist group pretending to want 1/

This anti-LGBTQ decision will one day be relegated to the dustbin of history, denounced as wrong from the day it was decided (as Lawrence v. Texas said of Bowers v. Hardwick), and recognized as a demeaning slur on the equal dignity of our fellow citizens

major questions doctrine is a farce, a smokescreen for ensuring rightwing political outcomes. Expand the court. Enact term limits. Limit its jurisdiction. We are at a constitutional breaking point.

The Michigan Legislative LGBTQ+ Caucus will not stop fighting for the rights of the LGBTQ+ community and denounces the 303 Creative ruling in the strongest possible terms. We've stood up to the extremist SCOTUS before, and we'll fight like hell to do it again.

If a business is open, it must be open to everyone – no matter where they’re from, what they look like, or whom they love. The #303Creative decision sets a dangerous precedent making it easier for businesses to discriminate.

"Today is a sad day in American constitutional law and in the lives of LGBT people. The Supreme Court...declares that a particular kind of business, though open to the public, has a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a protected class."

To recap: the Supreme Court overturned the right to an abortion, dismantled affirmative action, said ALL businesses can deny service to the LGBTQ+ community, & struck down President Biden's student forgiveness program. ALL IN ONE YEAR. You bet Gen Z is pissed off.

Discrimination is wrong.
Using religion as an excuse to discriminate is wrong - and unconstitutional.
The Court’s minority is right: the Constitution is no license for a business to discriminate.
Today’s ruling will move America backward.
