Finally! The city council is set to discuss a non-discrimination ordinance protecting LGBT city employees on Tuesday, July 20th.
On Wednesday, July 14th, the Tennessee Equality Project, the equal rights group behind the proposed ordinance, is hosting a letter-writing party to encourage people to let their council representatives know they feel on the issue.
The party meets at the Memphis Gay and Lesbian Community Center (892 S. Cooper) from 6 to 9 p.m. If you can’t make the letter-writing session, feel free to stop by the center any day from 2 to 9 p.m. to pick up tips for writing city council reps. You can even leave your letter at the center for delivery.
To organize your own letter-writing party, email shelbycounty@tnequalityproject.com for tips.
