Christian Leaders Scapegoat Gays on Marriage

The most sig­nif­i­cant thing about the new, anti-gay “Man­hat­tan Dec­la­ra­tion” is not that scores of Chris­tians are against gay rights. It’s that, rec­og­niz­ing they’re on the wrong side of his­tory, they tie them­selves in knots insist­ing they’re not anti-gay. And in doing so, they reveal the intel­lec­tual and moral bank­ruptcy of their obses­sive persecution […]

Some Democrats Back Off Bid to Legalize Gay Marriage in New Jersey

It was not on the bal­lot, nor was it a top-tier issue in the New Jer­sey governor’s race this fall, but the push to legal­ize same-sex mar­riage in the state could become a casu­alty of the elec­tion results.

Just weeks ago, Democ­rats, who con­trol both houses of the Leg­is­la­ture, spoke con­fi­dently about their inten­tion to pass […]

Lambda Legal Files Fed­eral Law­suit Seek­ing to Block Elim­i­na­tion of Domes­tic
Part­ner Ben­e­fits for Gay and Les­bian State Employees

…the state is pulling away a vital life­line that all work­ers need.  This
is sim­ply cruel and saves the state next to nothing.”

(Tuc­son, Ari­zona, Novem­ber 17, 2009) — Lambda Legal has filed a fed­eral
law­suit in U.S. Dis­trict Court in Tuc­son to block a move to strip domes­tic
part­ner ben­e­fits from gay and les­bian state employ­ees.  Ari­zona law­mak­ers
included a pro­vi­sion strip­ping domes­tic part­ner health ben­e­fits from state
employ­ees as part of a last-minute bud­get deal signed by Gov­er­nor Jan
Brewer in Sep­tem­ber, while retain­ing spousal health ben­e­fits for
het­ero­sex­ual workers.

Lambda Legal rep­re­sents ten state employ­ees – includ­ing from the Ari­zona
High­way Patrol, the State Depart­ment of Game and Fish, and state
uni­ver­si­ties – who rely on health ben­e­fits from their employ­ers to keep
their fam­i­lies safe.

This is an issue of equal pay for equal work,” said Tara Borelli, staff
attor­ney for Lambda Legal.  “By strip­ping away these vital ben­e­fits from
loyal state employ­ees, the state isn’t just pay­ing them less for the same
work than their het­ero­sex­ual col­leagues — it’s pulling away a vital
life­line that all work­ers need.  This is sim­ply cruel and saves the state
next to noth­ing.” Con­tinue read­ing LAMBDA LEGAL NEWS RELEASE
