Thanking Senator Travis Hutson re: GLBT Rights

Thanks to Senator Travis Hutson (R-St. Johns County) for supporting GLBT rights. Equality Florida reports: "State Senator Travis Hutson has just signed on as a co-sponsor of the Florida Competitive Workforce Act! That makes Senator Hutson the second Republican State Senator to officially co-sponsor the proposed statewide law banning LGBT discrimination in the workplace, housing and public accommodations." I have written him:

Dear Senator Hutson:

Thank you for standing up for equality!

Your co-sponsorship of the Florida Competitive Workforce Act, SB 120, sends a clear bipartisan message to all legislators in Tallahassee that it is time to work together to ban anti-GLBT discrimination in the workplace, housing and in public accommodations.

I appreciate your support of this bill and thank you for taking a stand against GLBT discrimination! Our cities of St. Augustine and St. Augustine Beach, our Mosquito Control District and several constitutional officers ban such anti-GLBT discrimination in either housing or employment (St. Augustine Beach bans both). I am proud of you for supporting equality.

I look forward to talking with you further about preserving our history and nature while saving tens of millions of dollars in O&M money through the transfer of current state parks, forests and water management district lands for the St. Augustine National Historical Park and National Seashore. www.staugustgreen.com

Happy New Year!

With kindest regards I am,

Sincerely yours,
