Don’t Ask, Don’t Give



By Jesse Barron on Saturday, 28th November 2009 Don’t Ask, Don’t Give thumbnail

I just stumbled across a great post named Don’t Ask, Don’t Give over at A Different View.

It is a take on the Don’t Ask, Don’t Give campaign and starts off with:

“Take the pledge, no donations to the DNC, Organizing for America, or the Obama re-election until the Democrats keep their promises to the gay community”

A year ago, the LGBT community, our families, friends and allies across the country were elated by the election of Barack Obama as President of the United States. We poured our hearts and wallets out to elect a Democratic president and Congress, and on November 4th, 2008 we had great hopes for the future of our country and our community.

Read the rest here.

Are you going to take the pledge?

I pledge not to donate to the Democratic National Committee, Organizing for America, or the Obama campaign until Congress passes, and the president signs, legislation enacting the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), repealing Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell (DADT), and repealing the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).
