Chandler Delays Vote
On LGBTQ+
Protections Despite
Demand From
Community For Action
|
|
"Chandler Mayor
Kevin Hartke and
other leaders have
delayed a vote on an
ordinance that would
extend protections
to LGBTQ+ people in
the city. Chandler
has not yet joined
other cities such as
Mesa, Scottsdale,
and Glendale who
have passed LGBTQ+
protection laws this
year. According to
The Arizona
Republic,
Hartke wanted to
“study the issue
more” before coming
to a vote. A
less comprehensive
“unity resolution”
that would not have
a system of filing
complaints or
delivering
consequences but
would at least
affirm the support
of LGTBQ+ in public
places, housing,
employment, and city
services was also
not approved." |
