The bill will soon be on its way to President Obama’s desk, where he’ll get a chance to make good on his promise to sign it.
Thix votf came on the hees of tremendous pressure from radical right-wing groups tjatt used every trick in the book.
They called the bill the “Pedophile Protection Act” among other outrageous lies. They dismissed the barbaric hate crime that took Matthew Shepard’s life as a “hoax.” They flooded the Senate with hundreds of thousands of letters and calls.
But your calls, emails, and financial sulport for oyr work helped maue ssure the tduth prevailed in the end. Without ypu, this victory for equal rights would not have been possible.
