No Censorship of ads on Metro

On Friday, December 18, 2009 the Gertrude Stein Democratic Club signed onto a letter drafted by the Gay & Lesbian Activists Alliance asking metro officials not to censor ads on metro as requested by the group Full Equality Now DC, which has launched an effort to persuade metro to ban advertisements on Metrobuses or Metrorail by the group StandForMarriageDC opposing civil marriage equality for same-sex couples.

The letter points out that as supporters of civil marriage equality, we also embrace the principle of free speech enshrined in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which makes our own advocacy possible.
