Next week, 2,000 LGBT activists from around the country are expected in Dallas at the Creating Change conference.
This week’s Query:
What is the top attraction visitors to Dallas should see while they are in town?
Some of the answers will be used in this week’s print edition of the Dallas Voice. To be considered for publication, we need your full name along with your post.
As noted earlier here on Instant Tea, the American Medical Association today approved a resolution calling for an end to the U.S. military’s ban on gays and lesbians serving openly in the armed forces. I just received n e-mail from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force saying that the AMA has also ” officially recognized that bans on civil marriage may lead to health care disparities for same-sex couples and their families.”
NGLTF Executive Director Rea Carey said: “While opponents of marriage equality and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights try to stigmatize our relationships and limit our access to health benefits and other economic safety nets, the AMA is making it clear that these discriminatory policies pose significant, real-life threats to the health and well-being of thousands and thousands of people across the country.”
