LGBT Equality & Justice Day 2009
Join the Empire State Pride Agenda in New York State for LGBT Equality and Justice Day 2009, to be held April 28, 2009 in Albany, NY:
Equality & Justice Day is the one day of the year when hundreds of LGBT New Yorkers and our allies go to Albany to demonstrate the power of our community and lobby our elected officials. E&J Day 2009 will be the most important yet, because now, for the first time ever, we have a pro-LGBT Majority in the State Senate!
Your lobbying at E&J Day over the past few years has played a significant role in getting the State Assembly to pass our community’s three most important bills: marriage equality, the Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act (GENDA) and the Dignity for All Students Act. With an Assembly and a Governor now supporting these issues, we now must make sure that the State Senate takes up and passes these bills so that they can become law in 2009!
