National Equality Rally - Philadelphia - May 3, 2009
Make History!
Join organizations, grassroots activists and straight allies from across the nation as we demonstrate at Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell—the site where the Gay Pioneers launched our movement with protests each Fourth of July from 1965 to 1969.
Call on Congress and our new president for:
* Passage of trans-inclusive hate crimes legislation and Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA)
* Repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)
* Support for GLBT health issues
* Equal benefits for same-sex families
* Same-sex marriage Equality
As Harvey Milk said: “All men are created equal. No matter how hard they try, they can never erase those words. That is what America is about.”
