EPCC Board Adjusts Non-Discrimination Policy
Normally when I attend a meeting of elected officials during public comment I beg and plead with them to do the right thing. Then they don't, and then I talk smack about them the next day.
So it was kind of weird for me yesterday when I didn't have to do any of that.
The El Paso Community College Board of Trustees voted to add a provision for transgender in their non-discrimination policy. The room was filled with people wearing white shirts with a big equal sign on them.
I was proud of the fact that they made that adjustment to the non-discrimination policy and it goes to show you that there is much more acceptance of modern social justice issues like gay equality in El Paso than the Bishop Brown's of El Paso would lead you to believe.
Bravo EPCC Board of Trustees.
