I received the following response from the Mayor's Deputy Chief of Staff.

We are contacting those who expressed interest in the Committee and when we have received confirmation from them with regards to their participation the names will be released.

This message is to ask when the Mayor plans to announce the launch of his LGBT Advisory Committee and release the names of his appointees.

Thank you.

Sue Kerr

So I guess we'll see more details forthcoming.

OK this is progress. You are probably right that they want to announce it at Pridefest. The most important thing will be who sits on the committee.

The proof is in the pudding. Let's see who is appointed before we throw a parade.

Its seems like it is going to be a good committee. I know of 2 Trans folk that have been contacted!

They were told the Mayor is going to make a formal announcement at the end of May or 1st week in June.

We might just have something here.

Sue, thank you for keeping this issue alive. It is important and no one else has been paying attention. You are one tenacious lesbian. Keep up the good work.
