There has been lots of movement on the Bathroom Bill this week. First off, the New Boston Post was on top of this issue again with a great column by Andover State Rep. Jim Lyons, calling it a “battle of conflicting rights.” We’ve also heard feedback from other friends on Beacon Hill that your phone calls […]
It really isn’t just about bathrooms and locker rooms. House Bill 1577, “the Bathroom Bill,” is intended to normalize transgenderism in every corner of our public lives. Advocates for the bill claim that it is necessary to prevent discrimination in “public accommodations,” like restaurants and hospitals. (For a glimpse at the clout this movement has on […]
The Transgender Bathroom Bill is back! As recently reported by WGBH, the Judiciary Committee has scheduled a hearing for the Bathroom Bill this fall, on Tuesday, October 6 at the State House. Make no mistake: this is the number one priority of the left. They are pushing hard to pass the bill this fall, and to […]

Transgender activists have apparently enlisted the young and famously-named congressman as the spokesman for their demands to get into all public bathrooms, locker rooms, and otherwise “lawfully sex-segregated facilities.” They are hoping […]
Tomorrow, April 28th, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on the matter of same-sex marriage. A record 139 legal briefs from various individuals and groups have been submitted to the Court arguing for or against requiring states to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

Last week I was called upon to debate the Indiana Religious Freedom Restoration Act on NECN. You can watch that six-minute segment here. My opponent’s strategy was to say the word ‘discrimination’ as much as possible, particularly when faced with questions he didn’t want to answer. Unfortunately, this is true for so many in the conflict between […]
You may have seen the article in Monday’s Boston Globe celebrating 25 years since the publishing of the infamous “children’s” book Heather Has Two Mommies, by Lesléa Newman.
