President Biden reacted to the Supreme Court's ruling siding with a Christian web designer who refused to make gay wedding websites and said he was 'deeply concerned.'

said Friday he is"deeply concerned" about the Supreme Court’s ruling in favor of a Christian web designer who refused to design gay marriage websites and urged Congress to take action to protect LGBTQI+ people.

Biden said his administration"remains committed" to working with the federal government to enforce laws against discrimination and pledged to work with states nationwide to"fight back" against"attempts to roll back civil rights protections." "Our work to advance equal rights for everyone will continue. That is why we must pass the Equality Act, which will enshrine civil rights protections for LGBTQI+ Americans in federal law and strengthen public accommodations protections for all Americans. I urge Congress to swiftly send this legislation to my desk."
