"Considering the gap that has been created by the Human Rights Campaign's (HRC) support of a non-inclusive ENDA, the timing of such an acceptance of funds seems ill timed.

The fissure between the transgender community and HRC is so expansive that long time activist, California Assembly's 2003 "Woman of the Year", and San Francisco Police Commissioner, Theresa Sparks recently returned the HRC Equality Award that she received in 2004."

How coincidental is it that the grants were sent by HRC to a high-profile bulls**t organization in Barney Frank's back yard?
