Sprint (NYSE: S) salutes today’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court that makes same-sex marriage legal across the country.

“With more than 57 million customers and approximately 30,000 employees, Sprint understands the value of diversity in our business, our communities and our nation,” said Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure. “Our different experiences, different backgrounds and different perspectives all come together to make us stronger. At Sprint we believe strongly that no one should be discriminated against because of whom they want to marry.”

Sprint is a longstanding supporter of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) and has received a perfect score in the HRC Corporate Equality Index since 2006. In 2010, Sprint joined many other companies in pledging support for the Employment and Non-Discrimination Act that would protect against sexual orientation or gender identity discrimination in the workplace.
