About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

Demand that Arizona protects their students, regardless of sexual orientation.

Activist and Executive Director Caleb Laieski, 16, and Director of Outreach Casey Cameron, 35, have e-mailed a letter to more than 5,000 school administrators, city-council members and state lawmakers demanding improved measures to fight discrimination.

Put an End to Bullying

To Whom It May Concern

I just saw an article in the Arizona Republic (01/04) about Gays and Lesbians United Against Discrimination putting your district on notice.

I stand in STRONG support of their organizations work and demand your district to promptly implement and work on their suggested actions.

We will all continue to watch your district in making sure this happens.

Regards,

[Your name]
