Here's news of a news release from the Traditional Values Coalition, on the attack against democratic candidates for the Senate Kaine of VA, Casey of PA, Donnelly of IN, Baldwin of WI, Brown of OH, Teeter of MT, and McCaskill of MO:

    Traditional Values Coalition is running awareness campaigns in 7 states to inform voters which candidates for U.S. Senate support putting transgender teachers in the classroom.   The Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) is radical legislation that hurts kids and forces schools to hire or retain transgendered teachers in every school district in America.

Now, I'm a teacher, you know.  I've been a teacher for over 36 years.  And being transgender has not harmed the quality of my work.  Being transgender does not make a person prone to abusing students.  It's usually heterosexual cisgendered teachers who do that.

Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2012) -- Traditional Values Coalition (TVC) President Andrea Lafferty, released the following statement today:

"Traditional Values Coalition is running awareness campaigns in 7 states to inform voters which candidates for U.S. Senate support putting transgender teachers in the classroom.

"ENDA is also a clear violation of the religious liberties and rights of conscience of Christian business owners."

Sorry Christians but you need to get your act together. There are wolves among your flock.
