LGBT Community Calls on Obama for Full Equality Outside DNC Fundraiser Following Prop 8 Ruling
LOS ANGELES -- Just one day after the historic California Supreme Court ruling on the Proposition 8 marriage ban, the LGBT community will gather outside the Beverly Hilton Hotel to welcome President Obama and highlight the growing movement toward full federal marriage equality and the need to repeal "Don't Ask. Don't Tell."
The most LGBT-friendly sitting U.S. President in history will be at the Beverly Hilton for a Democratic National Committee fundraiser.
The demonstration will feature Lt. Dan Choi and other LGBT servicemen & women in opposition to "Don't Ask Don't Tell."
Lt. Choi will ask President Obama to respond to a letter signed by more than 140,000 Courage Campaign community members asking the President to end DADT and not fire Lt. Choi. The letter can be found here:
