Governor Rendell, Congressmen Patrick Murphy and Joe Sestak Honored at Homosexual Event

In Philadelphia this week Equality Forum is holding it’s week-long pro-homosexual event.  Three Pennsylvania politicians will be honored during this coming weekend – Governor Rendell is listed as the honorary dinner chair of the International Equality Dinner.  Additionally, Congressman Patrick Murphy (D-PA-8) and Congressman Joe Sestak (D-PA-7) are honored guests at a May 3^rd reception for Pennsylvania GLBT political activists. 

For more information click here for the news release issued earlier today.  

By the way since 2003 we, as taxpayers, have given Equality Forum $275,000 to put on their annual event.  This was all through Department of Community and Economic Development  grants!  A drop in the bucket in comparison to the overall state budget, but where does cutting the budget begin?  To review the 955 page budget, click here. 

ACTION NEEDED: 

1.)  If you do not believe your tax dollars should be used to promote the homosexual lifestyle, please contact Governor Rendell and ask him to cut the Department of Community and Economic Development budget.
