Appreciation Thread for CA Senator Lieu & GovJerry Brown for Passing the Nations 1st 'Gay Cure' Ban

Last edited Sun Sep 30, 2012, 04:11 PM - Edit history (2)

I posted the story, here in LBN: http://www.democraticunderground.com/1014251397

Of course we also need to credit Gov Jerry Brown for his courage to sign the bill. They are the first in the nation to ban this horribly abusive, so called, treatment.

Here is the Gentleman who Sponsored the bill: California State Senator (D-Torrance) Ted Lieu, below are links to his official CA Senate sight and his Campaign website:





Link to his Campaign Website (He is up for reelection): http://tedlieu.com/index.php

Link to his Official State Website: http://sd28.senate.ca.gov/

His twitter account is @tedlieu if you want to post a comment

You can also go to his campaign website to like his page on facebook... He only has 38 likes... I would like to see the beautiful people at DU to give him a serious bump and get his likes up too at least 100.

It gives me hope to remind myself of that.

I have LONG been an admirer of Governor Brown. And this last time, he was out-spent by a landslide by Mega-Bucks meg "Ebay" whitman. And he still won. Sometimes the good guys still do.

As this moves across the country, everybody will be debating it and in the process will be educated about how harmful this sort of treatment is.

$28,000,000 for a Senate Seat back in 1994 down the drain.
