Excerpt: Neil G. Giuliano, president of The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation also weighed in, saying, ""It is unacceptable for public officials to promote this kind of intolerance and, in so doing, create a hostile climate for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in their community. "GLAAD is calling on the media to hold elected officials like Senator Renfroe accountable for using their
public offices to advance this kind of hatred and exclusion. Senator Renfroe's ugly, divisive assertions highlight the need for media to examine how the anti-gay attitudes of elected officials impact their diverse constituencies."
