Dear Supporter,
Yesterday, the
Kentucky Commission on Human Rights passed a historic resolution in support of a statewide fairness
bill that prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation
and gender identity.
The Kentucky
Fairness Alliance applauds the Commission and we ask
that you join us in expressing our appreciation, admiration and
solidarity.
By
adding your name to a community statement of
appreciation, you can help us
demonstrate our unity and camaraderie with the
Commission.
Reinforcing the
significance of the Commission’s resolution and the need
for a statewide fairness law, yesterday, The Williams Institute*
released a report showing that same-sex couples live in
every county across our great Commonwealth. That study was
compiled using U.S. Census data and is further evidence of our
integral role in the vitality of the Commonwealth’s
economy and social fabric. We must continue to mobilize
our resources, educate those around us, and encourage our public
officials to stand-up for full civil rights protections in every
county in Kentucky.
Thank you for all you do,
The KFA Team
P.S. Stop by the KFA booth tomorrow at Kentuckiana Pride to
register for free tickets to see Melissa Etheridge!
*The Williams Institute is a division of the University of
California at Los Angeles School of Law that advances sexual
orientation and gender identity inclusive public policy through
scholarly work.
The
Ampersand symbolizes the solidarity we are building through Friends &
Family, and suggests the inclusiveness we are working
toward. It reflects the idea that no one individual, legislator,
organization, or city can carry all the water for equality. Our
success lies in our solidarity.
