In conservative Cincinnati, Ohio, Republican City Councilwoman Leslie Ghiz is standing up to the forces of intolerance.  In March 2006, as Cincinnati City Council members debated a bill to add GLBT people to the city's non-discrimination law, an anti-gay group put a full-page ad in the Cincinnati newspaper criticizing supporters of the non-discrimination proposal.  The ad said, "Shame On You!"  When representatives of the group showed up at a committee hearing later that day, Councilwoman Ghiz told them, "Shame on YOU people for spending thousands of dollars putting that in the paper, and not spending it another way--like helping children."  She continued, "I'm proud to be part of the council to put this non-discrimination law on the books.  Shame on YOU for standing for discrimination!"  The non-discrimination law passed and is now on the books.   Log Cabin salutes Republican Councilwoman Leslie Ghiz and looks forward to working with her against efforts to repeal this new law.
