Congresswoman Baldwin & Gay Healthcare

Tuesday Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin introduced the Ending Health Disparities for LGBT Americans Act (ELHDA), the first comprehensive approach to improving all areas of the healthcare system where lesbian, gay, bisexual & transgender (LGBT) Americans face inequality & discrimination.

“Our current healthcare system fails LGBT Americans on many levels,”said Congresswoman Baldwin. “Although we have ample anecdotal evidence of these disparities, the federal government lacks even the most basic data on sexual orientation & gender identity & health. This bill invests in research & takes critical steps towards improving the health of LGBT Americans & their families,” Baldwin said.

In addition to investing in data collection & research, the bill establishes non-discrimination policies for all federal health programs, provides funding for cultural competence training for healthcare providers, extends Medicare benefits to same-gender domestic partners, creates a new office of LGBT Health within in the Department of Health & Human Services, provides funding for community health centers who serve the LGBT community. Updates to Come....:)

"Chica Busca Chica" Spain's "L Word"

"Chica Busca Chica" isn't a movie but four television episodes
strung together. The title means "woman seeking woman", as
these chic chicas in Madrid look for love, usually in the wrong
places. The women are quite pretty, but the show itself is hardly
the Spanish equivalent to The L Word beyond a show with a
several lesbians, a possible bisexual, & a self-declared newbie who
happily & naively decides it's time to experience sapphic love.
There are a few chuckles, but I suspect that the show which can be
seen online with or without English subtitles, works better seen
in weekly segment. Writer-director Sonia Sebastian has also
made a couple of short films.

Supreme Court Bans Gays in Military, Again

A major setback for our LGBT community serving in the Military. Monday the Supreme Court agreed with the Obama administration & upheld Pentagon policy barring gays & lesbians from serving openly in the military. The court said it will not hear an appeal from former Army Capt. James Pietrangelo II, who was dismissed under the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. The federal appeals court in Boston earlier threw out a lawsuit filed by Pietrangelo & 11 other veterans. He was the only member of that group who asked the highcourt to rule that the Clinton-era policy is unconstitutional. Read More.... Check OUT Fabulous "Ask Not" Trailer....
