Another Step on Hate Crimes.
Late last evening, a vote was held on the Matthew Shepard
Hate Crimes Bill in the United States Senate. There is some confusion about the
meaning of the vote and what the next steps are, so I thought I'd write and
clear it up as best as possible. Please understand that there are still
some unknowns working out now.
I've posted on our blog as clear and detailed a description of what is happening as we can. For all the details, check that out.
Ultimately, all of
the people who had called their Senators and all the people who visited their
Senators won the support of two-thirds of the United State Senate. That's
spectacular. Thank you!
