Chase Strangio, lawyer for Aimee Stephens, speaks to reporters following oral arguments in the case R.G. and G.R. Harris Funeral Homes Inc. v. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Stephens was fired from her job as a funeral director in 2013 after she wrote to her employer that she was trans. Gay and transgender activists demonstrated as the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in her case and two others dealing with workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation, in Washington D.C. on Tuesday, October 8, 2019. Chase Strangio is deputy director for transgender justice with the American Civil Liberties Union's LGBT & HIV Project. (Photo by Jeff Malet)
