Join The Impact NYC Rally
As you may have heard, a grassroots movement called Join The Impact has sprung up in the days since the election to organize rallies in every state in the union on Saturday November 15 for the cause of LGBT equality. A gathering in New York [...]
While the GOP has done much to hinder equality for LGBT Americans, it’s nice to be reminded that there are also Republicans taking a stand for us. Here are some recent quotables:

The Republican-controlled legislature of Putnam County, NY enacted domestic partnerships by a veto-proof majority, though Republican County Executive Robert Bondi signed the bill into law, according an Associated Press article carried by local TV station WCAX.

Casey will be absent for at least the summer as she is busy working for the Log Cabin Republicans in Washington, DC and I received my first of I’m sure many updates from her.

His vision of a small federal government, of a return to Constitutional principles, and of the inherent worth and dignity of all individuals is something that resonates with me. I believe he would run the country in a way that creates space for Americans to step [...]
