Boston – QueerToday.com activists and allies will protest the annual Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Dinner at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston on October 25 at 5pm.

The group is working to build a coalition of trans and queer activists, anti-war activists, and women’s rights activists to protest HRC’s lack of grassroots coalition building, support for pro-war and anti-choice candidates, and support of a non-inclusive version of the Employment Nondiscrimination Act (ENDA).

“It’s time to show HRC what real solidarity looks like,” said Trevor Wright of QueerToday.com, “transgender and labor activists united in San Francisco to build the largest protest ever of HRC, and we plan to show the country Boston can too!”

As of last night, rumors were circulating that the Mayor’s third Chief of Staff, Trent Rhorer, was resigning because he needs to spend more time with his family. (I will resist making a snarky comment about so many have resigned for precisely this reason.)

Steve’s appointment is great news for the city AND perhaps bad news for Eric Jaye, the political consultant for the Mayor. . . When Steve resigned before, it was said that there was a turf war between them.
