Mayor Nancy Rotering is proud to be signing onto a coalition aimed at highlighting the broad support for laws that ensure all Americans are treated equally. Mayors across the country are currently speaking out about Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, a case of a bakery that denied service to a same-sex couple because they are gay- and in the lead-up to the case more than 150 Mayors and jurisdictions submitted an amicus brief in support of the equality.
The statement will also be shared as part of the #OpenToAll campaign, a coalition effort aimed at highlighting the broad support for laws that ensure all Americans are treated equally.
