LGBT issues: Rally planned to support county's anti-discrimination ordinance By Marty Levine - January 1, 2009
Some Allegheny County councilors are wavering in their support for a countywide anti-discrimination ordinance -- but local gay rights activists are hoping to rally for the cause. Capitalizing on a 500-person Schenley Plaza protest held in November against California's anti-gay marriage referendum (Proposition 8), a recently convened group plans a Jan. 10 demonstration in the same Oakland spot. The gathering, which will be held 2-4 p.m., is intended to protest the federal Defense of Marriage Act while rallying on behalf of the county's proposed ordinance. The November rally "was about marriage," says Dana Elmendorf, of Monroeville, one of those who gathered Dec. 28, to organize the upcoming event.
