MARK GRISANTI SPEAKING X390 (nysenate.gov) | ADVOCATE.COM
A New York Republican senator is losing the backing of his local
Conservative Party because he voted in favor of marriage equality last year.
In New York, a state that allows candidates to run on tickets for more than

Being lesbian, gay, or bisexual is not a mental illness.
Yet, in California, some licensed mental health providers make dangerous
claims they can make a person straight through counseling.
Youth are often subjected to these practices at the insistence of parents,
who, however well meaning, don’t know or don’t believe the practice is
harmful.
You can help stop this dangerous and damaging practice by taking action
