Since the legalization of gay marriage, there have been cases around the country of Catholic institutions firing employees in same-sex marriages. In June, the director of religious education at a Catholic elementary school outside Philadelphia was fired after two parents complained about her marriage to another woman. Margie Winters said she had told administrators at the school about her marriage when she was hired in 2007. The school's principal said in a letter to parents that the school must comply with Catholic philosophy. In August, a Catholic college preparatory school in Macon, Georgia, settled a discrimination lawsuit filed by a music teacher who said he was fired in 2014 because of his plans to marry his partner.
