best way to get support for your bill: get a businessman to say something stupid

So the Washington state legislature has a bill to ban discrimination against a person's sexuality in the areas of housing, employment and insurance...

The vice president of an association representing 3,500 landlords made a remark last week...
Quote:
"Looks like it's anal-sex week," Lou Novak remarked as a group from the Lifelong AIDS Alliance walked though the state House office building.

The group included a 13-year-old girl and a 16-year-old boy.

The Rental Housing Association's executive board held an emergency meeting yesterday, after The Associated Press reported on the incident. Board members asked for Novak's resignation as first vice president, and he resigned from the association, which represents 3,500 landlords across Washington state.
Good way to draw attention to the issue of discrimination in housing, if you ask me.
