Is your legislator sponsoring a Holocaust denier's anti-gay bill?

Brian Camenker of MassResistance Testifies in Support of Parental Notification Bill S321 By Denying That Homosexuals Were Among the Victims of the Nazi Holocaust

Seventeen Republicans and Eight Democrats are sponsoring an anti-gay bill that would require a parental permission slip for public school teachers to use the word homosexual, lesbian, transgender, or bisexual.

This would also require a permission slip for classroom discussion of same-sex marriage, the current Equal Rights fight for LGBT, and even families being headed by same-sex parents.

But it gets worse. At Tuesday's Hearing of the Joint Committee on Education, two chief supporters of this bill gave testimony in which they denied part of the Holocaust -- claiming that homosexuals were not among the victims of the Nazi concentration camps (see Bay Windows article and KTN BLOG).

The legislators sponsoring this disgraceful bill and supporting the work of anti-gay Holocaust deniers are listed below. If your legislator is listed, you must contact them and demand that they withdraw their sponsorship of Bill S321 -- Parental Notification. A legislator may have his/her name removed from a Senate Bill by sending a letter of request to William Welch, Senate Clerk, Room 335, State House.
