Good morning. We’re awaiting a potential decision today from the Supreme Court about whether or not the Civil Rights Act protects LGBTQ employees from being fired for who they are or who they love. Opinions will be released at 10am ET. Happy Pride Month?

Get the facts: Here's an explainer on how we got to this moment with our Employment Fairness Project Director Greg Nevins. #DecisionDay lambdalegal.org/blog/20190924_…

We've been explaining to the courts for years how Title VII protects LGBTQ employees.

If you would fire a man for marrying a man, but would not fire a woman for marrying a man, that's sex discrimination! #DecisionDay

us on the Supreme Court opinions page rn #DecisionsDay

3 opinions out (2 Kavanaugh, 1 Kagan) none of which are the ones we're looking for. #DecisionDay

Another one, Aurelius, written by Justice Breyer.

They're really on a roll today. Several single-opinion mornings in a row, and today we've gotten 4 with no R numbers (signifying the end of opinion releases) yet?

Fifth opinion of the day is out, by Thomas.

R-numbers are up, meaning that was today's last decision.

Stand down, folks. Today is not the #DecisionDay we were waiting for.

Forecasting: SCOTUS is not scheduled to release any more opinions this week. We should know on Thursday whether they will release any next week. It's likely they will. #DecisionDay
