Pritzker remarked that every American deserves the right to marry the person they love. He reaffirmed the state's commitment to protecting LGBTQ+ rights and upholding equality. In his remarks, Pritzker stated that Illinois will continue to protect dignity and the freedom to be oneself, even as challenges to LGBTQ+ rights remain across the country.
