Marriage Discrimination Amendment

The IN House overwhelmingly passed the proposed amendment taking away rights from LGBT people. I am transgender and have been married for over 30 years. When I transitioned, should the State of Indiana try to hurt my marriage to "protect" other marriages? Why stifle growth to hurt a minority group? Check out indianaequality.org if you want to help. The fight for freedom is not over.

Tell your legislators that we want progress, not loss of freedom. How does exclusion and an unwelcoming environment help economic growth?

Perhaps our new state logo should be, The Land of the Free and Home of the Brave - Not anymore! Maybe that is too long to fit on a seal or flag, but it sure fits.
