The evening was elegant, the call for repeal was loud, and Pam made the art of live-blogging look effortless!

Thank you Pam for helping us get the word out about SLDN. And to all of our supporters, make sure you visit Pam's virtual coffeehouse to read about the day's news, learn about upcoming events and engage in friendly debate!

Tipper Gore to Join SLDN for UNITE on March 8

SLDN is excited to announce that Tipper Gore will join us in Washington for UNITE: SLDN's 16th annual national dinner & silent auction. We're honored to have Tipper as our special guest for this important night, and invite you to join us on Saturday, March 8 at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C.

Tipper has a long history of supporting the LGBT community, and has been a strong voice on issues of fairness, liberty and justice for all. She is the author, along with former Vice President Al Gore, of Joined at the Heart: The Transformation of the American Family, which includes profiles of LGBT couples.

In 2002, Tipper told reporters that "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" wasn't working. "I have a better solution," she said. "Let's rip it up."

To join SLDN, Tipper and our other special invited guest - Army Sergeant Darren Manzella - RSVP now.

Then join us on March 8 as we "rip it up" in Washington and move closer to the day when we lift the ban.
