Sometimes, as a transperson, it’s easy to feel left out, what with all this talk of GLB only ENDA, DOMA, Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, etc. Today, thanks to the attentions of my friends at Focus on the Family Action and Colorado Family Action, I’m feeling truly loved and appreciated as “a man in a dress". Isn’t it nice to finally be noticed!

Radio Ad Causes Anti-Discrimination Controversy
By Political Reporter Marshall Zelinger

COLORADO SPRINGS - An arm of Focus on the Family is fighting an anti-discrimination bill ready for Governor Bill Ritter’s signature. Senate Bill 200 will make discrimination based on sexual orientation illegal. It passed through both the House and the Senate earlier this year.
Focus on the Family Action and Colorado Family Action have produced a one-minute radio ad encouraging you to call the Governor and tell him to veto the bill.

This is a transcript of the radio ad:

“Mom…”

If the Colorado legislature has its way…

“A man in a dress came into the girl’s restroom at school today.”

We could all be dealing with a new type of predator.

“Honey, there was a man in the women’s showers at the gym today, and the management said it was, it was Colorado law.”

And instead of our kids worrying about class work, they’ll be worrying about who might be in the restroom with them.

“No way I’m going in there (school bell), I’d rather wait all day if a guy’s in there.”

Our children must be protected from predators, but if Governor Ritter won’t veto Senate Bill 200, all public restrooms, including those in our public schools, will be open to anyone of any sex.

Colorado’s Democrat-controlled legislature has already passed this bill, but Governor Ritter still has time to veto it. Call him now and ask him to protect our kids and veto SB 200. Call 303-866-2471. 303-866-2471.
