McDonald’s – funding homosexual activism

By: American Decency Staff

Recently American Family Association and Family Research Council have reported that McDonald's has begun financing attacks on marriage and the family as a new Corporate Partner of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC).Here are some of the concerns regarding the NGLCC: *** The NGLCC promotes businesses owned by homosexuals. *** The NGLCC pushes the homosexual political agenda in statehouses, courthouses, and the halls of Congress. Top-priority issues of the NGLCC are: *** Thought crime ("hate crime") laws, homosexual and transgender "civil rights" preferences, and domestic partner benefits. Richard Ellis, Vice President of Communications for McDonald's, was recently named to the Board of Directors of the NGLCC. In a press release, the NGLCC praised Ellis for his "vast Board experience with LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) and advocacy related organizations." It's alarming that the overseer of McDonald's advertising campaigns directly geared toward families will now be a leader in the NGLCC's campaign to weaken traditional values. The NGLCC's efforts on behalf of homosexuality threaten the family, the definition of marriage and the very religious freedom we hold so dear. Sample letter: Dear Mr. McKenna: For years McDonald's has been considered a corporation that supports healthy family and marital relationships. That perception was dramatically altered with the news that McDonald's has recently aligned itself with the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. My family and I have no choice but to let you know that you have lost our trust. We will not be able to do business with you as long as you remain aligned with an agency that so clearly undermines the family. I'll be looking forward to hearing from you and hope that you see that you have made an error in judgement and will be reversing your position. I will be passing this concern along to family and friends. Most sincerely, Contact: McDonald’s Corporation Andrew J. McKenna – Chairman James A.
