1/2 No American should fear the legality of their marriage, and the Respect for Marriage Act gives Congress a chance to protect equal rights and the legal rights of hundreds of thousands of LGBTQ+ families. @IBM thanks @SenSchumer for prioritizing this important bill

It was a privilege to share a panel discussion with the wonderful @EllaLSlade @Niksymmons and @CitizenAnkit in celebration of Pride Month. Together, we explored and celebrated the beauty of unique differences in our world, and discussed the importance of Pride! #PrideMonth

IBM strongly believes recent actions and new proposals by state government targeting the #LGBTQ community and particularly #trans youth is discriminatory and wrongly creates fear and uncertainty for American families. Read our full statement from @cgrantpickens below.
BREAKING: On #TransDayOfVisibility , 200+ companies have signed onto a joint statement from FFAA & @HRC opposing the rash of anti-LGBTQ legislation, much of which specifically harms trans youth, in states across the country. Read the full statement here: freedomforallamericans.org/2…

This week, we're tracking over 300 anti-LGBTQ+ bills across 36 states. Here's our update on the “Terrible Ten.” These bills are the worst of the worst — and they're moving swiftly through state legislatures. We need your help to fight back. Read this thread and share widely.

Thanks @cgrantpickens @EllaLSlade and @IBM for your continued leadership supporting the LGBTQ+ IBMers, their families, and friends in accordance with IBM value. This is part of a systematic attack not just in USA, but globally that continues to inflict trauma on our communities.

TAKE ACTION: The bigoted #DontSayGay bill now heads to @GovRonDeSantis' desk. Demand that he VETO this hateful legislation right away and denounce the anti-LGBTQ slurs coming from his office. Rush your message >>> act.eqfl.org/a/veto-dont-say…

More than 60 major companies are calling on officials in Texas – and across the country – to abandon discriminatory efforts against trans youth and all LGBTQ+ people. Discrimination is bad for business, bad for employees and bad for families.

This is so basic of me but I honestly think the saddest scene in any film *ever* is Emma Thompson realising she’s being cheated on in Love Actually

Beautiful shots of one of our proposed 3 venue clusters. From Hockey to Dance Sport and many more sports we hope to host all within walking distance of each other. Also home to our opening and closing ceremonies. #London2025 #EuroGames
Check out these stunning aerial views of the Park! It really is quite the vision. 👌

Wayne Couzens was seen arresting Sarah Everard in Clapham with passerby’s completely unaware they were watching a kidnapping + premeditated murder. He used covid law + days later in the exact same spot more police used covid law to brutalise and attack women and non binary people

My heart is hurting, man. She actually thought she'd done something wrong and was being arrested justly. Can you imagine how terrified she must have been when she clocked what was happening?

Fantassssstic news! Such a win for trans and non-binary youth. This will save lives that never should have been put in danger in the first place.

An excellent piece here from my colleague @EllaLSlade. The workplace experience is different for everyone, but most notably the LGBTQ+ community. Understanding these differences is the first step towards rectifying them. #IBM #Diversity #HR benefitspro.com/2021/07/14/w…
