Here’s what’s been going on on the law side of the LGBT debate:
Kansas decides once again to leave it’s anti-sodomy laws on the books, even though they’ve been ruled obsolete by the Supreme Court. Thank goodness they won’t repeal those laws, we might think we’re real people.
An essay about ENDA, the employee non-discrimination act. Because it’s not on the books (and since any version would probably include a non-profit exclusion), I can be fired for coming out. And that’s what happened when a Church’s music director married his husband.
Update: The Obama administration is going to stop defending laws that discriminate against same sex spouses of military members. This is awesome, and where DOMA will really start to fall.
All my best,
