Holland City Council members chose not to attend Holland PFLAG meeting

Two weeks ago we reported on the ongoing campaign to get the City of Holland to adopt an anti-discrimination ordinance that would include sexual orientation.

At that August 17 City Council meeting a member of the Holland PFLAG invited members of the City Council to attend their next meeting so that the elected officials would have a chance to hear directly from parents, friends and family members about the harm being done the LGBT community that lives and works in Holland.

GRIID contacted the folks at Holland PFLAG to find out if any of the Holland City Council members attended their last meeting on August 20. According to one PFLAG spokesperson not one of the Holland City Council members attended that meeting.

PFLAG Holland meets the 3^rd Friday of every month from 7 – 9PM Grace Episcopal Church 555 Michigan Ave, Holland, MI (Across from Holland Hospital). One spokesperson for the group said that their PFLAG chapter is working closely with Holland is Ready to get the ordinance passed.
