McDonald's chooses to support homosexualagenda

Refuses request to be neutral in culture war

July 3, 2008

Dear Friend,

McDonald's has refused a request to remain neutral in theculture war, choosing to continue support of the homosexual agenda.AFA wrote McDonald's asking the company do two things:

Remove McDonald's name and logo from the National Gay andLesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) Web site listing McDonald's asa "Corporate Partner and Organization Ally" of NGLCC.
Remove the endorsement of NGLCC by Richard Ellis, VicePresident of Communications for McDonald's USA, from theNGLCC Web site.

McDonald's refused both requests. McDonald's donated $20,000 toNGLCC in exchange for membership in the NGLCC and a seat on thegroup's board of directors. The NGLCC lobbies Congress on a widerange of issues including the promotion of homosexual marriage.

This boycott is not about hiring homosexuals, or homosexualseating at McDonald's, or how homosexual employees are treated. Itis about McDonald's, as a corporation, choosing to put thefull weight of their corporation behind promoting the homosexualagenda, including homosexual marriage.

Pat Harris, Global Chief Diversity Officer, Vice President,Inclusion & Diversity at McDonald's, responded: "I would like to take this opportunity toreaffirm our position on diversity." Notice that Ms.Harris said "reaffirm." Translated: McDonald's will not changetheir policy of supporting the NGLCC and their promotion ofhomosexual marriage.

Richard Ellis, who is openly homosexual, was given a seat on theNGLCC Board of Directors. He was quoted as saying: "I'm thrilled tojoin the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce and readyto go to work. I share the NGLCC's passion for business growth anddevelopment within the LGBT community, and I look forward toplaying a role in moving these important initiatives forward."

Addressing McDonald's promotion of social issues, McDonald's CEOJim Skinner said earlier the company will aggressively promote theissues they approve. In remarks on its Web site, Skinner said:"Being a socially responsible organization is a fundamental part ofwho we are. We have an obligation to use our size and resources tomake a difference in the world ... and we do."
