The primary purpose of this organization shall be to protect and advance the
civil rights of gays and lesbians in all aspects of their lives through such
activities as educating the general public as well as the lesbian and gay
community; registering and educating voters; endorsing and helping to elect
supportive candidates; and lobbying for national and state legislation, local
ordinances, and administrative orders. In order to further this purpose this
organization shall, from time to time, work with non-gay political groups,
forming coalitions and working together on issues of mutual concern.
Specific goals of the organization include, but are not limited to, the repeal
of Section 21.06 of the Texas Penal Code and the enactment or promulgation of
legislation, ordinances, and administrative orders specifically designed to
protect the civil rights of gays and lesbians, including measures 1) ensuring
that the parental rights of lesbians and gays are not abridged solely because
of their sexual orientation, and 2) prohibiting discrimination against individ-
uals with AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) or ARC (AIDS-Related
Complex).
The political activities of the organization and of its Political Action
Committee will be conducted in a bipartisan manner and in coordination with
other community organizations with similar goals such as the Dallas Gay
Alliance, Lesbian/Gay Rights Advocates, Metroplex Republicans, Lesbian/Gay
Democrats of Dallas, and Lesbian/Gay Democrats of Texas. Community members
will be encouraged to work openly within the political process for the advance-
ment of their own civil rights as gays and lesbians.
