A resolution expressing support for the designation of June 26 as "LGBTQI+ Equality Day".
The Senate resolution SRES 306 supports designating June 26 as "LGBTQI+ Equality Day" to commemorate three landmark Supreme Court rulings on that date: *Lawrence v. Texas* (2003, ending criminalization of same-sex intimacy), *United States v. Windsor* (2013, striking down DOMA), and *Obergefell v. Hodges* (2015, guaranteeing same-sex marriage). It encourages public celebrations to educate about ongoing LGBTQI+ discrimination while acknowledging these court victories were not enough to eliminate barriers. The resolution is symbolic - non-binding and non-enforceable - focusing on raising awareness rather than creating new laws. It explicitly calls for future legislation to address discrimination in areas like employment, housing, and public accommodations.
