AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Liz Shuler Applauds the Supreme Court Ruling Upholding Marriage Equality

Statement by AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Liz Shuler on the Supreme Court upholding the constitutionality of same-sex marriages:

Today’s Supreme Court decision marks a truly historic day in America. While there is still work to do to secure economic and social justice for LGBT Americans, the court’s ruling is a major victory for everyone who believes in equality.

Same-sex couples will now have equal access to marriage licenses like any other couple. This ruling is a win for children, families, workers and our entire country.
