what kind of terrible message...?

John, With the Republicans passing several hateful anti-LGBTQ bills around the country - like the new ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill in Florida - we’re asking what kind of terrible message are they sending? The LGBTQ community, and especially our youth, need our acceptance and support. They …

John, If you have any doubt about what the Republicans want to do if they win back a majority in Congress this year, all you have to do is ask Senator Ron Johnson… he just admitted they’re going to try and repeal Obamacare again! I thought we already went down this road before?? …
