Log Cabin Republican members and supporters should be proud of the progress our organization has made this past year. We look ahead to the important challenges facing us in 2010 as there is much important work to be done to build a more inclusive Republican Party.
The last year brought success and setbacks: Polls show more Republicans than ever supporting basic fairness for gay and lesbian people. Help us support inclusive candidates. Log Cabin is the only organization with an active legal challenge to the unfair military policy, “don’t ask, don’t tell.” Our case has moved into the discovery stage. Despite promises to end the policy, the Obama administration is fighting to keep our case from moving forward.
Even with the progress we’re making, the passage of the Maine anti-gay measure shows how much work remains.
In the New Year, Log Cabin’s work is more important than ever. The GOP is at a crossroads. Will the GOP learn the right lessons?
As supporters of the GOP, Log Cabin is determined to elect and support centrist Republicans by focusing Log Cabin Republican PAC funds on critical GOP races in 2010 to help rebuild an inclusive Republican majority.
