Respect

Respect is the most basic form of human decency, deserved by every American. We must promote and celebrate the teaching of respect for all humankind as a priority in every family, school, organization and place of worship.

Through the teaching of respect, we can further ensure that our LGBT friends, family and co-workers will live in an environment free of judgment, rejection and hostility.

In order to fully respect ourselves we must first give other the respect they are due.
