Hate Crimes Bill Needs Your Support
Posted by kate on Jul 16, 2007 in Uncategorized |
We’re closer than ever to passing a federal hate crimes law that includes and protects all Americans.
This legislation would help combat hate crimes across America by updating the current laws to include sexual orientation and gender identity while providing new resources and tools to assist local law enforcement in prosecuting all hate crimes.
Last week, Senator Kennedy added it as an amendment to the Department of Defense reauthorization currently being debated before the U.S. Senate. A floor vote could come at any time (S. 1105).
Please call your senators right now and demand they vote in support of the Hate Crimes bill.
