A
group of 50 Illinois business leaders and organizations that includes
Google, Orbitz, and Groupon, as well as the CEOs of Hyatt Hotels,
Navistar, Morningstar, and Johnson Publishing, have come out in
support of marriage equality in Illinois, with a letter telling the
General Assembly that allowing same-sex marriage would, among other
things, make Illinois more competitive when it comes to attracting
top talent, as well as bringing millions of dollars into the state’s
coffers. The Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act, which would
allow gay and lesbian couples to get married in Illinois, if passed
by the General Assembly could make Illinois the 10th state in the
nation to legalize same-sex marriage. Those
who signed the letter, include: the Chicago Urban League; Google;
Orbitz; Groupon; Bill Daley; Ron Huberman; J.B. Pritzker; Lance
Chody, CEO of Garrett Popcorn Shops; Desiree Rogers, CEO of Johnson
Publishing Co.; John W. Rowe, Chairman Emeritus of Exelon Corp., and
Joseph Mansueto, Founder and CEO of Morningstar, Inc.

Hi Brother Joseph.
ReplyDeleteThese people just showed their hand. They said allowing same sex marriage in Illinois will bring more money to the state's coffers. Oh, I see. It is not really about how the gays feel about themselves and their situations. It is not about the gays wanting to be treated as equally as possible. It is all clear to me now.
By the way, I am not a big fan of Google, but I need my Android phone. I love your blog, but Google owns Blogspot and YouTube as well. Personally, I think there is a reason to boycott every company on earth. I will do the best I can.
Jesus and I love you but He loves you best! T. W.
