* "When people have said 'poverty is no excuse,' my response has been, 'Yes, you're right. Poverty is not an excuse. It's a condition. It's like gravity. Gravity affects everything you do on the planet. So does poverty.'"

Indiana Democratic Convention will be hosted June 15-17 in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
The U.S. House of Representatives voted to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
This historic vote follows the successful vote in the Senate Armed Services Committee. The issue will now move to the full Senate floor sometime this summer. After years of fighting to end this law, these two votes are a thrilling step forward, not just for lesbian and gay service members – but for each and every American who believes in equality.
Preparing to end the military of Don't Ask, Don't Tell will allow thousands of good Americans the opportunity to serve our country and will help reduce misunderstanding of many of our GLBT citizens. It will take time for greater appreciation to grow, but it is slowly happening and that makes our country stronger and allows people to work together more effectively. This has helped.

Maybe you should consider Fifth Freedom - a local group to empower people with disabilities to remove the barriers that thwart their potential. They are assembling a cast of thousands statewide who are willing to invest a little time to make a big difference.
Just so you know - we are cleaning up this page in preparation for the next election.
