As so many in our community are aware, if language to remove DADT is not placed in the Defense Authorization Bill chances are it will not happen this year.
Furthermore, if that language is not inserted before May 24th, it will be too late.
Visit Senate.Gov and find out who your senator(s) are and email them. If you prefer, call them. You may contact your senator by calling the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121.
Visit House.Gov and find out who your representative(s) are and email them. If you prefer, call them. You may contact your representative by calling the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121.
Like Howard Dean said at the rally/protest this last weekend. Marine Staff Sgt. Eric Alva was the first American wounded in the war in Iraq. Marine Staff Sgt. Eric Alva is a gay man. If a gay man is brave enough to stand up and take a bullet for his country, his country should be brave enough to stand behind him!
Interestingly there was a immigration protest this last weekend as well. House Representative Guiterrez was arrested at that protest showing his support for change in immigration policies.
Our LGBTQIA community has representatives in congress as well. The only concern of theirs came from Barney Frank who said the only thing we are putting pressure on is the grass!
What’s wrong with this picture?
Within the next week and a half Gay Talk Radio will be speaking with multiple Veterans about DADT, live on Gay Talk Radio. Be watching for the announcement in coming days.
GayTalkRadio.org a 24/7 LGBTQIA Licensed Independent Internet Radio Station.
