Day 84: Sign a Petition to Stop LGBT Discrimintaion

A wonderful lady we know, named Pam, posted a petition link on facebook to be signed to prevent LGBT (lesbian, gaybisexual, and transgender) discrimination in schools. I signed immediately! No one deserves to be bullied!

Here is more information about the Petition:

PETITION: STOP LGBT DISCRIMINATION IN OUR SCHOOLS

Discrimination based on sexual orientation must come to an end, especially in our schools.

That’s why Rep. Jared Polis introduced H.R. 998, the "Student Non-Discrimination Act" to ensure that we end discrimination based on sexual orientation in schools for good.

The safety of American children should be a bipartisan priority, but from the looks of it, right-wing special interests are already fundraising to block this basic anti-discrimination measure.

In fact, the arch-conservative publication The Weekly Standardsent out a bigoted email calling gay Americans "sexual deviants."

Help us fight back. Sign our petition right now calling for an end to discrimination based on sexual orientation in our schools.
