2. Bill will be introduced this coming week - H Res 1059.

Will someone in the GLBT community please explain to me why this is not important?

3. Of course it's important

There is just so much for us to fight. Maybe straight people who care about national security and their own safety can help overturn this one for us, though.

We're discriminated against in so many jobs. I think this could be really popular with even moderate straights. As in "I don't like all those gays marryin' but we shouldn't discriminate against them if it'll get us all killed."

It could be used as a wedge.
