BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธSupreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บCourt of Justice just ruled all ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บcountries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her
