White House To Gays: Go Roll Your Own
April 17, 2006: My good friend, the fabulous blogger Michael Rogers at PageOneQ was on the scene when LGBT families were treated like second-class citizens at the White House Easter Egg Roll. This is from his site. Read the whole story here.
After waiting outside overnight to be among the first to enter this year’s White House Easter Egg Roll, families in line were surprised to learn that the White House had changed the ticketing policy for the annual event, PageOneQ has learned.
The unannounced change means that the families who waited in line the longest, in one case for twenty-four hours, will not be among the visitors at the event’s opening ceremonies. The first families in line, who were not part of the LGBT family group, received tickets with an 11:00am entrance time, two hours later than the opening time listed in the White House press release.
