Important Opportunity for All Veterans, DADT Reform Activists
LGBT, NewsBites — By Speak Equal on April 12, 2010 at 8:00 amOn May 10th and 11th, hundreds of veterans from across the United States will descend on Washington, DC with one clear message for Congress – “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (DADT) needs to go and it needs to go this year!
The National Veterans Lobby Day on DADT, a project of Servicemembers United and HRC (in partnership with a broad coalition of other organizations including SLDN, VoteVets, Stonewall Democrats, Log Cabin Republicans, Knights Out, and many others), will take place immediately before the National Defense Authorization Act is drafted on Capitol Hill. During this critical time, we need all hands on deck. WE NEED YOU to join us in Washington, DC for the National Veterans Lobby Day on DADT to help us tell members of Congress and their staff face-to-face that DADT needs to go, and it needs to go now!
To join us in Washington, DC for this important event, please begin by registering at VeteransLobbyDay.org. Please register early and invite other veterans you know, both gay and straight, to join you. We look forward to seeing you in DC on May 10th and 11th!
