Deeth adds: the other R's listed may be supportive. Janelle continues:
This is a defining moment in Iowa history. We can take the path of being a welcoming state where everyone is valued or we can take the path of fear and discrimination. Make no mistake about it this is also a defining moment in the Democratic party. If Democrats value GLBTA people they can find a way to get this done now, not next year, not one more election.
If you are a Democrat think about everyone you've ever given money to, ever volunteered for, or anyone you voted for and consider asking them to get involved and pull in all the political capital they have to make this happen.
