Straight supporters of LGBTQ rights in the US

I am a straight American citizen looking at my family, friends and co-workers who are not afforded the same rights as other US citizens. They are mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles and most of all they are a part of my life.  Seeing them with limited rights and not be able to enjoy the same security I have in my life is immoral, unjust and un-American. I will not vote for any official or candidate in the next US election that does not support equal rights in the United States for all Americans, including those members of the LGBTQ community.

These rights include but are not limited to, protection in the workplace as a minority, equal recognition of sexual assaults, hate crimes, anti-bullying laws, and equal marriage rights in all states. If you want the vote of myself and other members of the straight community along with the votes of my gay friends, co-workers and family members, you must show support for true equality in your work as a candidate.

 

Across the US candidates are gearing up for elections to offices of power ranging from Governor and Councilman, all the way up to the US President. The GOP, Republicans, and the Tea party have run the agenda of homophobia. Some have gone as far as to say that gay rights aren’t even political issues. Here’s your chance to tell them that you think they are. This is your chance to say that as a straight person you are a supporter of gay rights and you want to see true equality in America. It is also your chance to show those brave Republicans who have in fact stepped up for equality, that they have your support.

Show them there is in fact a separation of church and state and that they are working with the minority if they fight against LGBT rights like marriage equality, transgender rights, hate crime protection, and protections against discrimination in the work place.
