Rest in Power, Aimee Stephens. You did not deserve to be fired for living your truth.
As a Michigander fired for being transgender, she brought her case to the Supreme Court and didn't survive to see their ruling in her favor.
Her wife's GoFundMe raised more than they requested and Aimee passed peacefully with her loved ones.
Thanks to this ruling, we can hope transgender people will rest easier and live longer knowing they won't have to suffer what Aimee did - losing a career she was great at, simply because her boss was a bigot.
The 6-3 opinion was authored by Neil Gorsuch.
