In light of the recent suicides of gay teens around the country, we asked our colleague, Darrell Tucci, to share his story for the first time to let youth know it gets better and to let people know they can do something to help.

Hillary Clinton lends her voice to teens troubled by bullying for being or being perceived as ‘gay.’ This is a great American lending her powerful voice to the “It Gets Better” project.

The White House has announced a host of new rights for the LGBT community, including a new voucher program.

The military is no longer enforcing the gay ban.

I’m so freaking angry right now I could spit. White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett referred to the sexual orientation of now-deceased teenager Justin Aarberg as a “lifestyle choice” — and then phones in her tepid apology through Washington Post meat puppet Jonathan Capehart.

A paid professional who is tasked with representing the White House doesn’t simply — oopsy! — slip and talk like that about somebody else’s child.

Ms. Jarrett needs to apologize, quickly AND publicly, for her unfortunate and ill-considered choice of words both to the grieving parents of this young man and to the LGBT community. Her comments appear to support the very ignorance and disregard that lead to anti-gay bullying and violence and, as a representative of this administration, need to be corrected.

This incredibly moving statement by Fort Worth City Councilman Joel Burns during a City Council meeting really needs no additional words from me.

Weekly Pulse: Palin Revives Death Panels; Boobs Against Breast Cancer; and the Anti-Gay Bullying Crisis

The DNC and the HRC are attacking gay Democrats for their lack of enthusiasm in this election.

Institutional hatred enshrined in laws against LGBT people leads to easier bullying and suicide. Let’s stop this.
