TV Ad Attacks Republicans Who Would Exclude Gays from Military

HeadlineJan 18, 2000

A gay rights group has produced a television ad that goes after Republicans who would keep gays out of the Armed Forces. The ad responds to a campaign by the Republican National Committee spotlighting the controversy surrounding Vice President Gore’s position on gays in the military. The thirty-second spot says the GOP presidential candidates are so busy fighting about who should serve that they may have forgotten the values we actually fight for. The human rights campaign ad airs this week in Iowa and New Hampshire.
