" WASHINGTON, DC-
The U.S. Senate passed the Matthew Shepard Act on Sept. 27. The legislation expands federal hate crimes laws to include violence based upon sexual orientation, gender identity, gender, and disability".
The senate may have passed it, but Bush has promised to vito it. We are setting up the ground work for what is to come though, so this is progress.
Peace
