In a powerful letter to AT&T CEO-BSA President Randall Stephenson, New York State Senator and Eagle Scout from West Virginia Brad Hoylman urges the Boy Scout President to "expedite your groundbreaking new policy to admit young women so Sydney and other girls can be recognized formally as BSA members."
Thank you Senator Hoylman for your continued support in welcoming all families into Scouting, regardless of sexual orientation or gender. We hope that other elected officials, community leaders, everyone will contact the Boy Scouts and ask them to end the discrimination now. Scouting is such an important program for our youth, all our children should feel welcome.
We are frequently asked, "With all other western countries already allowing young women and the BSA now allowing some young girls, why are the Boy Scouts still excluding young women, particularly the leaders who helped bring about this historic change?"
Please email AT&T CEO and Boy Scout President Randall Stephenson and Chief Scout Executive Michael Surbaugh, and respectfully ask them to allow Sydney and the other young women to join, now! The Scout leaders can be emailed at Randall.Stephenson@scouting.org; pr@scouting.org; myscouting@scouting.org;
rs2982@att.com; michael.surbaugh@scouting.org.
Please share this petition and encourage others to sign, comment, write to the BSA and share.
