A Christian civil-liberties organization announced on Thursday it is
representing an alliance of residents, congregations and businesses
against Hamtramck, Mich., to overturn a city law privileging
homosexuals and cross dressers.
The Thomas More Law Center's clients are targeting an ordinance that
permits males who profess to consider themselves women and wish to use
women's bathrooms in businesses and public buildings. Facility owners
and managers who prohibit a cross-dressing male from entering a
women's lavatory can be fined $500 for each day they enforce that
policy and could face civil litigation.

QuoteThe Thomas More Law Center said it will act as legal counsel for a coalition of citizens, businesses, and religious groups that are challenging the ordinance, which makes it legal for men who identify as women to use women's bathrooms in any school, business or public facility.
"In classic Orwellian doublespeak, the ordinance defines such behavior as 'Natural Rights of Hamtramck Residents,'" the Law Center noted.
"Radical homosexual activists have taken over city councils like Hamtramck all across the nation," said Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Thomas More Law Center. "These ordinances end up being used to bully and prosecute Christians who faithfully practice their religion."
