It is a decision that marks a turning point in the history of LGBTQI rights in the United States. The Supreme Court has ruled that it is illegal for an employer to dismiss a worker because he is gay or transgender. The judges determined that the Civil Rights Act, passed in 1964 and ending segregation, also applies to the gay, lesbian and transgender community.

Glad, Clay Aiken wondered about the role of judge Neil Gorsuch, who voted for this measure, after being appointed by Donald Trump. "I have a question: Does that mean that we must salute Justice Gorsuch for his role in protecting LGBTQ + people, or can we continue to hate him for all his other decisions with which we do not agree, "he asked on Twitter.

Very conservative, Neil Gorsuch had been the object of strong opposition from the Democratic camp when Donald Trump chose him to succeed Antonin Scalia in 2017.
