I wrote this piece for Lez Get Real which includes the official statement from Chick-Fil-A corporate along with my analysis of what this whole sordid mess means for Pennsylvania. Thanks to Lez Get Real for the chance to bring a national audience to a regional/statewide issue.

So surf on over for the gory details and see what kind of impact a stupid decision on the part of one little franchise can have on the movement for equality. And call your State Rep!
