Kudos for Mike Thompson
Posted By Brandon Burt on May 22, 2009, 2:32 PM
On Tuesday, May 26, the Salt Lake City Council is giving special recognition to former Equality Utah Director Mike Thompson.
It's a well-deserved honor. Thompson spearheaded the Common Ground Initiative, which I thought of as a really good way of calling out marriage equality opponents based on what they are willing to say to get what they want vs. what they truly believe. Predictably, the Legislature made a hash of things, but Thompson's instincts were right on.
