The recent court victories for gay marriage is not the end of the struggle for gay rights. There is still private discrimination in employment and housing. The Civil Rights Act of 1964, based on congressional power to regulate interstate commerce, must be amended to include sexual orientation and gender identity. Contrary to popular belief, the regulation of interstate commerce reaches wholly intrastate activity if the intrastate activity uses instrumentalities of interstate commerce [eg, communications or transportation] or has a real or potentially-substantial cumulative effect on interstate commerce. Gonzales v Raich [DEA could seize 6 marijuana plants used solely for valid medical purposes by an individual with medical marijuana card].
