Description | I know this celebration has taken on an added urgency in the wake of recent events. Five young men and women may have recently been beaten at a local restaurant because they are gay. It has been reported that two of these men are active duty soldiers serving in our military, making this incident all the more tragic. This deplorable act is an affront to our founding principles and
an attack on our very humanity - and we will not put up with it.
I'm an ally for equality because I want my little girls to grow up in a world that allows every American and every Coloradan, including our GLBT friends and neighbors, to be safe in their communities, openly serve our country, earn a living, and take care of the ones they love. Today, we stand together against violence, hatred and intolerance and for a community and a country that respects and values the dignity of every Coloradan. We continue the fight to ensure our nation lives up to its highest ideals: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for every American. And we will do that work together |
