Your tax dollars at work.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR) on Wednesday announced the launch of the Rural Pride campaign to elevate and address the needs of LGBT people living in rural communities across the country.

The goal of the campaign is to challenge the stereotype that LGBT people live only in metropolitan areas by elevating the voices and stories of LGBT people living in rural America.

The centerpiece of the campaign is a series of day-long summits hosted by USDA, NCLR, and local community partners.

The summits will focus on the unique needs of the rural LGBT community, highlight the efforts the Obama administration has undertaken to protect this community, and identify next steps to ensure all rural communities have access to the resources they need to thrive.

The campaign will also raise awareness of the particular issues faced by LGBT rural communities including increased rates of economic insecurity, lack of family protections, lack of nondiscrimination protections, and the heightened challenges facing rural LGBT youth and rural LGBT people of color.

The kick-off summit will take place in Greensboro, N.C. on June 6.

You may be asking yourself what the USDA has to do with homo concerns. Well, don't.

Ok so most of the 2 or 3% of the population are LGBT people and most of them are in Hollywood and Media and DC--so what they are really doing is ramming their lifestyle down flyover country which they hate--with tax-payer money of course

Most rural people deal pretty well with the LG crowd. I'm not sure about some of those other initials. There's always a couple of "different" people in every small town or rural community. Generally speaking, out of courtesy, you don't ask and they don't tell.

Ok. We have Zero talking about shipping Northeasterners to the Midwest so that they can boost Leftist votes there and now this.

Anyone else seeing that the Commie Pinkos are upset that flyover country is ignoring them? There is a large segment of this country that mock and ridicules the Left and now they are going to try and do something about it.
