Join us February 4th for a protest action to spread the word about the Anti-Homosexuality Bill that has been introduced in Uganda.We will meet around 4:50 pm to bullhorn and wave signs and let the people know about this horrible legislation. This event is also running in conjunction with Equality Across America's protest of the "Family's" ( a U.S.-led right wing group with more than 10,000 cells worldwide) National Prayer Breakfast. The infamous C Street House is the DC residence of far right U.S. politicians who have helped author or ardently support legislative efforts to restrict the civil rights of LGBTQ people and other minorities in America and throughout the world. For example, U.S. Senator John Ensign (R-NV), Family member and C Street resident, has argued for legislation to ban states from recognizing same-sex marriage. And U.S. Representative Bart Stupak (D-MI), another Family member and C Street resident, proposed an amendment to the House’s health care bill that is nothing more than a disgusting attempt to roll back abortion rights. Ugandan Family members and anti-gay extremists are crafting that country’s dangerous “Anti-Homosexuality Bill” promising ruthless punishments such as the death penalty or life in prison for LGBTQ and HIV-positive people. The Ugandan government has long misspent and wasted millions of dollars of U.S. funding intended for HIV/AIDS prevention and wellness services. The new bill’s chief authors are Family members James Nsaba Buturo, Uganda’s Minister of Ethics and Integrity, and Member of Parliament David Bahati, both of whom have proceeded with the encouragement of Ugandan President and Family member Yoweri Kaguta Museveni.
