EPISODE
“DOMA and DADT”
(originally aired 8/09)
Two failed policies of
former administrations are in the news today. The Defense of Marriage
Act (DOMA) and Don’t Ask, Don’t
Tell (DADT) were passed by Rebublican-led congress during Clinton’s
terms as president. Our host Sheila
Kuehl has assembled some of the great minds of the LGBT community for
her guests: Sky Johnson, Senior
Policy Counsel for the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center; Jenny Pizer,
Marriage Project Director for Lambda
Legal; and Jon Davison, Legal Director for Lambda Legal. Please join us
for a thoughtful discussion of these
issues.
