On the March in Queens

LGBT-rights activists braved the snowy streets over the weekend to protest two state senators from Queens whose "no" votes helped defeat the marriage equality bill earlier this month (YourNabe.com). Marriage equality supporters marched on Senator Hiram Monserrate’s office in East Elmhurst on Saturday and Senator George Onorato’s office Sunday. Both men are Democrats. Monserrate had previously indicated that he would support the bill in an Empire State Pride Agenda survey.
