Is The Gay Community Being Used As A Trojan Horse?
H.R.1592 Matthew Shepard Act to be voted on tomorrow?
Title: To provide Federal assistance to States, local jurisdictions, and Indian tribes to prosecute hate crimes, and for other purposes.
Sponsor: Rep Conyers, John, Jr. [MI-14] (introduced 3/20/2007)
Note: Conyers is a friend of CAIR and this legislation is a threat to free speech creating a protected class (guess which one). In Canada they have created kangaroo courts wherein anyone can charge anyone else with hate speech and put them through a long legal and financial wringer . . just ask Ezra Levant or Mark Steyn.
Legislation to add sexual orientation and gender identity to the list of categories covered under federal hate crime law will be taken up Wednesday by the House Judiciary Committee.
It is expected the bill will be marked up and be sent to the full House for a vote, possibly before the end of the month. President Obama has said that if the bill is passed he would sign it . The legislation passed the House in 2007, but President Bush threatened to veto it if it passed in the Senate.

Related Bills: H.RES.364, S.1105
Latest Major Action: 5/7/2007 Referred to Senate committee. Status: Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
