We are fortunate enough to be on the brink of something HUGE in Ohio: our first pro-LGBTQ piece of legislation will soon be making its way through the state legislature, and we have a very good chance of winning it!
The Equal Housing and Employment Act (EHEA) will be reintroduced in the Ohio House of Representatives soon and this is the best chance ever for it to pass. When it passes, this will be the first pro-equality bill for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people ever enacted at the state level in Ohio.
But make no mistake, the EHEA will not pass if we don’t work for it.
So join HUNDREDS pro-equality, fair-minded Ohioans on May 13th at the state capital in Columbus Columbus as we talk to our elected officials about equal rights for ALL Ohioans regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity. Mothers, fathers, families, clergy members, students – straight and gay, young and old – they took a day off from school or work to come to Columbus for Lobby Day.
REGISTRATION FOR LOBBY DAY CLOSES ON APRIL 30TH! Don’t miss your chance to let our elected officials know that ALL of us deserve equality in our state laws.
Bring your story to the statehouse on May 13th to make a difference. Don’t be late! Register before April 30 to join us on this important day. http://eqfed.org/equalityohio/events/lobby09/details.tcl
