A town hall meeting on October 9 from 1 to 3 pm will focus on the impact the Heather Delgado v. Nikki Araguz case will have on the overall GLBT community within Texas and beyond.
A loss could mean that the State of Texas will no longer recognize the transitioned status of transgender people. This will have a huge impact on transgender employment issues, bathroom issues, issues of policy and issues of law.
A win could ensure that the State of Texas will officially recognize the transitioned status of transgender people. This will also have a huge impact on transgender employment issues, bathroom issues, issues of policy and issues of law.
Additionally, a win could put Texas in the exact same place California was post-Prop 8. A win will mean that we will have a law banning same sex marriage while at the same time having many officially State-sanctioned valid same sex marriages that came about due to the 1999 Littleton vs Prange ruling.
On hand will be: Darrell Steidley & Phyllis Frye (1st, 2nd chair in the Delgado v. Araguz case) as well as the entire Frye and Associates law firm, Nikki Araguz, TFA Executive Director and Board of Directors Vanity, Diamond Girls, Jenifer Rene Pool, Host of Queer Voices and City Council candidate, Kris Banks, President of the GLBT Political Caucus
