Definición

  • The 2003 landmark case of Lawrence v. Texas is perhaps the most important U.S. Supreme Court case concerning gay and lesbian rights and liberties to date. Although the 1996 case of Romer v. Evans was pathbreaking in its own right, ensuring that state referenda could not preempt localities from recognizing gays' and lesbians' civil rights if they so chose, Lawrence justly has been deemed the Brown v. the Board of Education of the gay and lesbian movement.
