Deny entry of Illinois Politicians in 44th Annual Chicago Pride Parade

The Issue

105 days have passed in order to gain the amount of votes needed for SB-10 (Illinois' pending same-sex marriage bill) and then at the moment it needed to be called, we suddenly did not have enough votes so it has now been postponed till November. How could they not hear the people cry out for equality? So why should we be subjected to hear them cry out for votes and elections during our time of being proud of who we are and the battles we have overcome? Not to mention the assault of publications handed out by them or their employees during our festivities--IF YOU CAN'T HELP US--WHY SHOULD WE HELP YOU?
