The 2025 Senate Joint Resolution 73, introduced by a bipartisan group of senators and representatives, seeks to officially recognize June 2025 as LGBTQ Pride Month in Wisconsin. The resolution highlights Wisconsin's historical commitment to equality, noting significant milestones such as the state's pioneering law against discrimination based on sexual orientation in 1982 and the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2014. It acknowledges the progress made in the treatment of LGBTQ individuals, including the representation of openly LGBTQ members in the state legislature and the U.S. Senate.

Despite these advancements, the resolution also addresses ongoing challenges faced by the LGBTQ community, particularly among youth who are at higher risk for bullying, mental health issues, and homelessness. By designating June as Pride Month, the resolution aims to promote an atmosphere of inclusion and acceptance, encouraging all Wisconsinites to participate in celebrations and affirm their commitment to mutual respect and understanding within the community.
