LGBTQ NATION: While other states are attacking LGBTQ+ rights, Massachusetts is supporting equality.
While many state legislatures across the country are scrambling to pass anti-LGBTQ+ legislation this year, Massachusetts is going in the other direction.
The state’s senate passed a bill yesterday — unanimously, as in, even the chamber’s Republicans voted for it — that repeals the state’s ban on gay sex as well as a law known as the “walking while trans” law. » | Alex Bollinger | Friday, January 19, 2024
The USA is rapidly falling into darkness. Fortunately, there are a few spots where enlightened ideas flood out the darkness. Massachusetts is one of those places. That is where my late partner and I had a home. Boston, for example, is a wonderful city; and its inhabitants reflect its liberal and enlightened status as a world class city. I have many happy memories of that great city; and fond memories of the friendly and enlightened people of Massachusetts I met. It is a great pity that more American cities and states don't follow Boston and Massachusetts' example of progress and emnlightenment. – © Mark Alexander
