Jim Burroway on President Obama's LGBT Scorecard

Jim Burroway at Box Turtle Bulletin has done a great service today to LGBT citizens and to all Americans concerned to defend human rights in our democracy. He has taken the new civil rights agenda on the White House website to which I linked a day ago (www.whitehouse.gov/agenda/civil_rights), and has developed an LGBT scorecard for the new administration based on this agenda (www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2009/01/22/8238).

This encapsulates in an easy-to-follow format the primary objectives of the Obama administration's civil rights agenda. I recommend Jim Burroway's posting about this and the graphic he has developed for easy use by all of us who will be watching to see when and how the new administration moves on the issues delineated on its website.
