Executive Director William Jaco notified BOYCOTT COLORADO, INC. this week of the decision by the Massachusetts-based organization. Using conservative industry- recognized estimating techniques (those recognized by the Colorado Convention and Visitors Bureau), this represents another $4,000,000 loss to Colorado because of the anti-gay law which was supported by a militant fundamentalist group based in Colorado Springs. BOYCOTT COLORADO, INC. has been notified by at least 4 other organizations, including the United States Environmental Protection Agency, that a definite decision has been made to cancel plans which had included Colorado, because of passage of Amendment 2. Research is still underway to determine the dollar loss. ****** Derek Livingston, one of the co-chairs of the National March on Washington, has thrown his support behind the global boycott of Colorado, telling BOYCOTT COLORADO, INC. "The nightmare of Amendment 2 in Colorado is awakening the other 49 states to the fact that bigotry is alive and well and on the march." He said he will meet in a few days with his fellow co-chairs to determine an organizational stand on the boycott. He said he believes Amendment 2 has set off a dangerous nation-wide any-gay movement by the right-wing which must be stopped in Colorado. The National March on Washington is expected to draw a million supporters of equal rights for gays and lesbians to the Nation's Capital this Summer. **************** In response to a nation-wide call for buttons, t-shirts and other pro-boycott advertising, bumper stickers bearing the trade-marked BOYCOTT COLORADO logo are being mailed out at a rapid rate at a price of $2 each or 5 for $8.00 CALL 1-800-4-BOYCOTT FOR MORE INFORMATION # # # WHO IS BOYCOTTING?

Gazette Telegraph, Colorado Springs January 17, 1993 Opponents' defiance continues By Jeff Thomas Just because Amendment 2 has been blocked temporarily doesn't mean the battle over gay rights in Colorado is settled. Far from it. A Denver judge's ruling Friday that the amendent must be deemed constitutional by the courts before it takes effect will maintain the status quo for now. But even if Amendment 2 is eventually upheld in a later trial, pockets of resistance--even outright defiance--will remain, creating a confusing legal patchwork across the state that could take the courts years longer to sort out. The amendent says gays can't ask the government for help if they are denied a job or housing because of their homosexuality. Many folks will never notice its presence or absence in their lives. Still, plenty is at stake for the homosexual community and thosd allied against it. To them, Colorado would be a profoundly different place under Amendment 2. If the amendment is upheld, 'somebody can be terminated from their job solely because they are gay, and they have no recourse," said Tony Ogden, acting director of Equality Colorado, sworn to somehow dismantle Amendment 2. Worse, he said, Colorado would officially sanction displays of hatred toward gays. To Amendment 2 supporters, the measure would take from homosexuals a tool they've uyed to obtain protection they don't deserve. Amendment 2 "merely says homosexuals have equal rights, but they don't get any special consdieration because of the way they have sex," said Will Perkins of Colorado for Family Values, the Colorado Springs group that brought Amendment 2 to the ballot in November. Whichever view prevails, it doesn't appear Amendment 2 will weave smoothly into the state's legal fabric. A handful of cites--Vail, Breckenridge, Frisco and Grand Junction--have adopted resolutions denouncing the amendment and hav pledged their help to repeal it. If it goes into efect, they will obey it, however grudgingly. Some towns, however, will behave as if Amendment 2 never happened, even if it does become law. Aspen will continue to enforce its 1977 civil rights ordinance, which protects homosexuals and 12 other groups, even though Amendment 2 specifically nullifies the language protecting gays. "Until a court tells us we have to obey this amendment, we have no intention of doing so," said Aspen Mayor John Bennett. "We sincerely believe that discrimination of any minority group has no place in a civilized society." Boulder and Denver hae similar ordinances, and are free to continue enforcing them now that amendment 2 has been put on the shelf. Aspen, Boulder, Denver and nine individuals are suing the state to overturn the amendment. Even if Boulder and Denver were to obey Amendment 2, they could interpret it differently. Dani Newsum, director of Boulder's Office of Human Rights, said the amendment would permit her to follow up on complaints from heterosexuals that they are being denied a job or housing because of their sexuality. But it would prevent her from helping gays who claim the same thing. Residents in Telluride are so upset that they will vote Feb. 2 on an Aspen-style ordinance of their own just to thumb their noses at Amendment 2. Supporters of the ballot measure want the town to join the lawsuit against the amendment. "We felt it was a vile addition to the constitution, and we wanted to change that," said Zeb Landsman, a Telluride lawyer who helped get the measure on the ballot. If it passes, and the courts lataer uphold Amendment 2, Telluride town attorney Laura Harper someday might have to perform some tricky legal footwork: enforcing a town ordinance that violates the state constitution. She wouldn't predict how she'd do it, and lawyers for other cities were also uncertain how to proceed. "If we enforce our ordinance, we'll do it under the belief that it violates the federal Constitution," said Darlene Ebert, assistant city attorney for Denver. "It certainly leads us into a dilemma, because we're also sworn to obey the state constitution." Should Amendment 2 ultimately win court approval, the renegade cities would have to try again to prove it unconstitutional, said Gene Nichol, dean of the University of Coorado law school. "If nothing else, (disagreement over Amendment 2) shows it's a good thing that we have one, final, U.S. Supreme Court" to decide the issue once and for all, Nichol said, adding there's a good chance the issue will wind up there. But already legal wheels are turning that could prevent a Supreme Court showdown by making Amendment 2 academic. U.S. Rep. Pat, D-Colo., has introduced a bill in Congress that would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act to prohibit discrimination against homosexuals. Colorado legislators are pushing their own ideas. State Sen. Regis Groff, D-Denver, has drafted a proposed constitutional amendment that would simply repeal Amendment 2. Rep. Ken Chlouber, R-Leadville, is pushing a bill that would expand privacy rights to include sexual orientation. That would mean employers would have no business asking whether an employee is gay. A third measure proposed by Sen. Bill Ownes, R-Aurora, and Rep. Sam Williams, D-Breckenridge, would permit workers to sue their employers if they were punished for any legal pursuit--including sex--off the job. Gazette Telegraph, Colorado Springs January 16, 1993 Reaction to Judge Bayless' ruling: "I don't think the ruling on this injunction has any bearing on whether (the law) is unconstitutional or not. A judge who doesn't rule something is a possibility is ruling himself out of a job." Will Perkins, chairman of Colorado for Family Values. "I think the judge said it very well. This is a constitutinal democracy so the people's vote is very important, but it has to be in the context of the Constitution and that's what is being tested here." Boulder Mayor Leslie Durgin, whose city has an ordinance protecting gays from discrimination. "It's wonderful to be a lesbian today. It's good to be a lesbian most of the time, but it's wonderful to have the support of the justice system. I feel fantastic. I think a lot of education--the truth--about gay and lesbian people took place as part of the hearing." Pat Hewitt of Colorado Springs. "It makes your vote useless. It doesn't matter if you're for or against something. The other side will just go to court and try to change it." Dennis Robinson, aircraft mechanic. "The amendment is unconstitutional and legalizes discrimination. The majority of people thought slavery was OK. That didn't make it right. The majority of people thought the Earth was flat. That didn't make it flat." Joe Reininger, custodian. "I'm not an expert on the law, but we should go with the will of the people." Carrie Hooper, mortgage company underwriter. "I think they're going to waste a lot of money going with this." Debby Hammett, restaurant owner. "We can't just say now, 'Well, I don't like President Clinton. Let's go to court and see if we can get him out.'" Terry Brah, Army pilot. "I think legally he had to do it. He followed the law. I might not agree or like it, but if the judge thinks it might be unconstitutional, he had to stop it." Judi Nishikawa, elementary school teacher. "This is the most incredible week of my life. For the judge to suggest that the expansion of civil rights and a skewed sense of morality is not a basis for denying rights to gays and lesbians--I've been waiting to hear that all of my life." Richard Evans, lead plaintiff in the case. "He (the judge) said the people of Colorado don't hate homosexuals. He said it was a good faith effort on the voters' part to do what they thought (was right)." State Attorney Tim Tymkovich. "The judge made a very good (point) that nobody in Colorado wants a bad law on the books. This is an opportunity for the courts to check and balance and make sure it is doing the right thing." Kevin Tebedo, leader of Colorado for Family Values. "It's precedent-setting. Civil rights law hasn't been used in history to exclude someone from protection. The eyes of the nation are watching, and I think it's uncomfortable for Colorado and particularly uncomfortable for Colorado Springs." Bruce Loeffler, Ground Zero spokesman. "It is my hope that we will be able to bring people together. We all live in one state, and we need to respect the rights of all people." Denver Mayor Wellington Webb, whose city is a plaintiff in the case. "This decision gives the homosexual crowd a feeling of victory and normal people a sense of hopelessness. Does my vote count for anything? ... If the opponents of Amendment 2 get cocky at this decision and start throwing it in our faces ... I think it could turn to strong feelings of frustration and possibly violence." Chuck Holbrook. "Judge Bayless' injunction keeps discrimination from being legal in Colorado. I hope that people now realize that they must stand up for civil rights of all persons ... In the '50s and '60s, many people gave religious and moral reasons why blacks and whites should not live, study and work together. Again, diversity and tolerance are America's strengths, but it takes work to overcome prejudice." Lyn Akers. "I have two children and I have always taught them that the most powerful thing you can do in this country is vote. And now that seems to mean nothing ... What do I tell them? Do I tell them the system lied?" Kay Craig. "I feel comfortable in allowing our courts, through due process, to answer the constitutionality of the amendents and not the self-appointed spokespersons for Colorado for Family Values to do the interpreting for us." Conrad Robran "With the help of the liberal lapdog media, the homosexual activists have distorted Amendment 2 to fit their own agenda. The amendment will be upheld as constitutionally sound, which it is." Diane Johnson. "I believe the injunction is proper, and I've always believed Amendment 2 was unconstitutional. I do not think God gave me the right to judge another, to impose my values upon them. The amendment seems to be rooted in bigotry." Glenn Logan. "I would be all for putting Amendment 2 on hold indefinitely if we could also do the same wiht the AIDS virus. Let's face it: The bottom line is the health of every American, and until a cure is found for AIDS, we can not condone a lifestyle that promotes it." Tomy Romero Gazette Telegraph, Colorado Sprints January 16, 1993 Hearing on measure's constitutionality next By Louis Aguilar DENVER--Amendment 2 will not become law until the courts decide whether it is constitutional, a Denver judge ruled Friday. Denver District Judge Jeff Bayless issued a temporary injunction that prevents the measure from taking effect and warned the state that it must prove a compelling need to include the amendment in the constitution. The decision elated the homosexual community, but Amendment 2 supporters and critics vowed to continue the fight that began last May when the measure made its way onto the ballot. Amendment 2, authored by Springs-based Colorado for Family Values and approved by voters in November, bars laws that protect gays, lesbians and bisexuals from discrimination based on their sexual orientation. Gov. Roy Romer and state Attorney General Gale Norton said they will imediately appeal the ruling to the Colorado Supreme Court. That action, in part, will help the state define what legal questions it will face in the trial over the amendment's constitutionality, Romer said. "Judge Bayless has set out a fairly definitive standarad, and we need a higher court to confirm or deny that standard," Romer said in a written response to the ruling. Bayless said he agreed to the injunction because there is a reasonable chance that Amendment 2 will be deemed unconstitutional for allowing discrimination toward gays. He cited case law that showed that "private prejudice" cannot be sanctioned by the state. But he warned that the granting of the injunction should not be taken as foreshadowing that the amendment will be overturned. The attorneys involved and other legal experts, however, said the state will have a tough time meeting the legal standards outlined by Bayless in his 50-minute discussion of his ruling. State Attorney Tim Tymkovich said the Bayless ruling "puts the government role in a difficult position" because the state must show "what legitimate government purpose and need" Amendment 2 will carry out. And since Bayless said the thrust of the amendment is really about civil rights for gays and bisexuals, it essentially has to prove how Colorado law becomes better and more efficient in dealing with gay civil rights through Amendment 2. "In fundamental rights issues such as equal protection, a government always has difficulty proving that," Tymkovich said. Gene Nichol, dean of the law school at the University of Colorado at Boulder, said the judge's ruling indicates a strong possibility that Amendment 2 could be struck down after a trial. "In this instance, I think his ruling has more significance than just the timing," Nichol said. 'Because the theory employed ... was that a very rigorous standard of review should be applied under the equal-protection clause (under the 14th Amendment) to Amendment 2. "Meaning, that unless there's a compelling state interest to justify the distinctions drawn in Amendment 2, that it should be ruled unconstitutional. I think it's important to note, that test is almost never met. And so, the likelihood that the plaintiffs will eventually win on the merits, as well, is very high." Bayless said the amendment was legally put on the ballot and legally adopted. But that doesn't mean that it will meet the constitutional test. The people of Colorado may change the state's constitution, but the law says the change must not be "repugnant to the Constitution of the United States," he said. The judge's ruling brought a roar of cheers from the crowd watching the proceeding through the monitors of TV news cameras outside the courtoom. Richard Evans, a gay man who is the lead plaintiff in the lawsuit, said he "felt like we won round one." Eight homosexuals, a straight man with AIDS, and the cities of Boulder, Denver and Aspen are behind the lawsuit seeking to have the amendment ruled unconstitutional. "This has been the most incredible week in my life," Evans said. "It's taken a judge to say that gays and bisexuals do face tremendous discrimination, some-thing I've known for a long time. I'm going to go home and have a good meal with my lover and ... basically, feel better about our protection in society." The lead plaintiff lawyer, Greg Eurich, called Bayless' ruling a "an incredibly brave decision." "He defined the way he will look at the lawsuit, and he protected the rights of a very unpopular minority. It is a great day for the state of civil rights in Colorado." Eurich said he hopes the injunction sends a message to the groups in the eight to 12 states reportedly working on Amendment 2-type initiatives. "This should tell them that you can't go after civil rights without expecting a great deal of difficulty." But Kevin Tebedo, executive director of Colorado for Family Values, said the ruling was "not a setback." "The judge made a very good point that nobody in Colorado wants a bad law. This is an opportunity for the courts to go through the checks and balances ... and make sure they are doing the right thing. I hope this tells other groups out there to don't give up. The fight is still going on." Ever since the public debate began over Amendment 2, critics have contended it was about fundamental rights for gays and lesbians. Not about the hiring quotas or affirmative action policies that amendment supporters told voters it was about. Critics say it denies gays and bisexuals legal recourse when they are fired or kicked out of their housing because of their sexual orientation. Therefore, they say, it clearly limits their ability to fight discrimination. Several of the plaintiffs testified they need that protection. For example, Angela Romero, a Denver police officer, tearfully testified that she was demoted and taken out of her position of working with inner-city kids when her boss found out she was a lesbian. He found out about her sexuality, she contends, by noticing one of her expense accounts included materials bought from a lesbian book store. Romero said she fought successfully to get some gay rights protections in the Denver Police Departent, but they will be wiped out because of Amendment 2. The three cities involved in the lawsuit said that since local governments can't enact ordinances to ensure gay rights, they can't help prevent discrimination. Supporters of Amendment 2 contend that since federal civil right laws don't define homosexuals as an identifiable minority group, the homosexuals are asking for special rights. Supporters say they shouldn't be allowed those kinds of discriminatory protections if the federal government hasn't really identified them. That's true, Bayless said, but he also said that courts have the power to expand civil rights. He quoted a U.S. Supreme Court justice saying that American laws have "evolving standards of decency which mark the evolution of a maturing society." The Denver Post January 24, 1993 By Greg Trinker, Special to The Denver Post The 16th annual Aspen Gay Ski Week began yesterday with an estimated 3,000 gays and lesbians pouring into the city. Some of Aspen's 5,049 permanent residents view the event as an outrage. Others see it as welcome tourism business and a victory for human rights. In any case, with controvrsy over anti-gay-rights Amendment 2 swirling in the national spotlight, "the whole world will be watching," said Robert Aikens, organizer of a massive anti-Amendment 2 candlelight march through downtown last night. The event attracted several hundred peopoe. Roger and Mary Moyer brought their 8-month-old daughter, Kate. "This is not a gay thing. It is about equal rights for all people," Mary Moyer said. Because of Amendment 2, tension for Gay Ski Week is running higher this year. For example: * Denver Ku Klux Klan leader Shawn Slaetr has said he will visit Aspen during the week to hand out anti-gay material and protest the injunction by Denver Judge Jefrey Bayless blocking implementation of Amendment 2. Local gay leaders say no counter protests are planned, but they can't speak for national leaders in town. Police are on alert. * Former National League umpire Dave Pallone, who is gay, will speak to the Aspen High School student body Thursday. The speech has caused bitter community debate. * National media have set up camp in Aspen to cover the continuing Amendment 2 story. ABC, CBS and NBC plan to have film crews in town for parts of the week. Despite "good treatment from Aspen," San Francisco gay ski club official John Armor said this year may be his last. His organization originally had 50 reservations for the trip to Aspen, but 30 members dropped out. "As you can imagine, there has been tremendous debat within the club," Armor said. "We'll give it one more year to change or we won't be back. We don't want to support a state that doesn't support us." For local pastor Bruce Porter, a vocal Amendment 2 supporter, homosexuality is "an abomination," which he is quick to criticize, especially with Gay Ski Week on center stage. "If we truly love someone, we will confront them about their behavior, especially if it's destructive," he said. Hotel bookings for the week are projected at 60 percent of capacity. Last January averaged 69 percent occupancy. /--------------------------------------------------------------\ | Chad Skelton - "To Go Where No Message Has Gone Before" | | Call THE BLUE ROOM at (519)-885-3623 / 4pm to 7am daily (EST) | | email address: cskelton@realm.tdkcs.waterloo.on.ca | \--------------------------------------------------------------/
