Jim Obergefell has shared his fears around same-sex marriage being 'erased' under the Trump administration. The Obergefell v. Hodges case was instrumental in legalising same-sex marriage in the US. Now, Obergefell has shared his fears over the Trump administration and LGBTQ+ rights. “I always knew I’d be sharing my story for the rest of my life,” he says. “But now it feels different. Now, I tell my story not just with joy but with fear—fear that this story will be erased, our marriage will be erased, that our right to say ‘I do’ will be erased.” "We have taken some great steps forward, but with every bit of progress in our nation, we take steps back. If we don’t remind people where we’ve been, we’re going to lose it.” “I feel fortunate that I can be a voice for our community, that I can continue to fight for those who are marginalized and vulnerable because the LGBTQ+ community includes everyone—and we must fight for all of us.” #donaldtrump #samesexmarriage #jimobergefell #marria...
