Japanese lawmakers stand as they approve a contentious awareness promotion bill for LGBTQ+ rights at the lower house in Tokyo Tuesday, June 13, 2023. The passage by the lower house, where Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's governing bloc has a comfortable majority, came after only a few hours of debate at a lower house committee last Friday after the bill's submission and its last-minute partial revisions, and is expected to be sent to the less-powerful upper house for approval and enactment as early as Friday.
