This is becoming a relationship, don't you think?
GetEQUAL is planning to protest Nancy Pelosi. Here is their press release:
I do understand getting the word out, but I wish, I really wish they would go after some of these anti-gay candidates that are running for office. THEY need to feel the heat!“Why is the Speaker of the House, who hails from the gayest city in America, blocking legislation that protects lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender workers from workplace discrimination? Every day we live without the passage of ENDA is another day Congress turns a blind eye to discrimination against the LGBT community,” said Gabriel Haaland, spokesperson for Pride at Work and city-wide elected DCCC Committee Member. “Most LGBT workers have no protections from workplace discrimination. ENDA would provide legal protection against discrimination nationally. Speaker Pelosi has repeatedly promised to schedule a vote on ENDA, but has yet to fulfill those promises. The time to pass ENDA is now. The overwhelming majority of Americans support it; the politicians promised it. No more broken promises. We demand that Speaker Pelosi stop blocking ENDA and schedule a vote, now.”
You're right, it's important to hold the feet of the so-called progressives who court our vote to the fire but our enemies should get more attention. The Right Wing-Nuts don't seem to feed on their politicians to the same degree.
