4
Whereas, in February 1982, Wisconsin made history when Governor Lee

and
SJR73,1,11
8
Whereas, in the intervening years, tremendous advancements have been
9
made with respect to equitable treatment of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and
10
queer or questioning (LGBTQ) people both in Wisconsin and throughout the nation;
11
and
SJR73,1,13
12
Whereas, Wisconsin elected the first openly LGBTQ member of the U.S.
13
Senate, and the Wisconsin state legislature has 13 openly LGBTQ members; and
SJR73,2,2
14
Whereas, in June 2014, same-sex couples were legally able to marry in
1
Wisconsin, and the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the equal right to marriage for
2
same-sex couples in all 50 states in June 2015; and
SJR73,2,5
3
Whereas, despite these advances, LGBTQ people continue to face
4
discrimination, and LGBTQ youth continue to be at increased risk for bullying,
5
substance abuse, depression, homelessness, and suicide; and
SJR73,2,7
6
Whereas, June has become a symbolic month in which LGBTQ people and
7
their allies have come together in various celebrations of pride; and
SJR73,2,9
8
Whereas, recognizing Pride Month will help foster an atmosphere of inclusion,
9
acceptance, and celebration to the community; and
SJR73,2,11
10
Whereas, LGBTQ individuals, along with their families, friends and
11
neighbors, will be honoring Pride Month in communities across our state; and
SJR73,2,14
12
Whereas, the month-long celebration is an opportunity for all people in the
13
state to affirm their commitment to mutual respect and understanding; now,
14
therefore, be it
SJR73,2,16
