URGE YOUR SENATORS TO SUPPORT THE MATTHEW SHEPARD ACT!
The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled a hearing on the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act for Thursday, June 25, 2009. So your Senators need to hear from you now!
Every hour of every day, at least one hate crime offense is committed somewhere in the United States. Of those attacked, it's estimated that at least 15% of hate crimes are related to a person's perceived or actual sexual orientation or gender identity. Click here to tell your Senators this is unacceptable!
Done and Done.
Send those letters to your senators.
Janet
Me too!
