NO SALE: ¨“I’m disturbed by the news that Uganda is considering going ahead with a measure that denies the humanity of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people.”

Anglican Member of Parliament David Bahati, author of ¨Kill the Gays¨ legislation and ¨C Street Family¨  affiliate

Anglican Archbishop Henry Orombi, supporter of  ¨anti-LGBT¨ legislation and ¨spiritual counselor¨ to David Bahati and  ¨C Street¨ extended family member

Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) has issued a statement condemning Uganda’s moves against the LGBT community

“I’m disturbed by the news that Uganda is considering going ahead with a measure that denies the humanity of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people.”

“I was pleased when the Financial Services Committee overwhelmingly, in a bipartisan way, voted in favor of my amendment urging the Secretary of the Treasury to oppose any financial assistance from multilateral development institutions to countries that persecute people on the basis of their sexual orientation, gender identity or religious beliefs. In the discussion of the amendment I offered, I specifically mentioned the deeply troubling case of Uganda, which is now considering legislation to legally deprive people of these basic human rights.”

“If the bill before the Ugandan parliament becomes law, it must be the policy of the United States government to oppose any aid to Uganda from the World Bank, the African Development Bank, or any other international financial institution of which we are a member.” HERE

Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Bill is far from dead HERE

The ¨spiritual counselor¨ of Anglican MP David Bahati (author anti-LGBT bill before Parliament) is Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi according to Jeff Sharlet, author of ¨The Family¨...both +Orombi and MP Bahati are ¨extended¨ members of the Washington D.C. ¨C¨ Street Family.

Jeff Sharlet: In the last ten years, The Family has poured millions into “leadership development” in Uganda, more than it has invested in any other foreign country

Jeff Sharlet: “The kill-the-gays bill wasn’t conceived at C Street or the Cedars. The Uganda Fellowship that launched the bill was. The Family didn’t pull the trigger; they provided the gun.” HERE
