Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton took to Twitter on Thursday to voice her support for Houstons Equal Rights Ordinance.
Clintons tweet, which comes just five days before the election, is by far the most high-profile endorsement yet for HERO, which would prohibit anti-LGBT discrimination in the nations fourth-largest city.
No one should face discrimination for who they are or who they love I support efforts for equality in Houston & beyond. #HERO #YesOnProp1 -H, Clinton wrote.
Human Rights Campaign President Chad Griffin was among those who responded to Clintons tweet:
......................:
The messages being broadcast across Houston attacking LGBT people in an attempt to repeal the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO) go beyond misleading theyre horrifying, Bomer wrote in an email for HRC. These malicious ads, funded with a lot of money from anti-equality opponents, slander innocent people with slogans like no men in womens bathrooms and imply transgender Houstonians want non-discrimination protections as a means to abuse children.
