From the Tennessee Equality Project comes news of the latest civil-rights-stealing scheme of the TN GOP:
You might be saying to yourself, "They’ve already taken away our marriage rights in Tennessee. What else could they do?" Plenty. Here’s what the website for the TN House majority party says: "We will push a law that clarifies our marriage statutes and states that this state does not recognize civil unions and domestic partnerships. If someone enters into one of these unions in another state, we do not want any ambiguity in our law to prohibit the recognition of that union in Tennessee."
In conversations with hundreds of you around the State, you’ve told us where you stand. You want us to fight these attacks and to advance positive protections for your families. If you believe IT’S TIME, then join the campaign and let’s make our stand together. Find out what we’re fighting for here.
And according to gay adoption expert and advocate Jennifer Chrisler of the Family Equality Council, we can expect the Tennessee GOP bullies to celebrate their lonely election victory with renewed efforts to ban gay adoption.
Florida just came out of the dark ages and the Tennessee GOP wants this state to take its place. Good luck with that. There's a righteous backlash rising up across the nation, and it's coming for the GOP Neanderthals. It ain't gonna be pretty.
