PRESIDENT OBAMA ORDERS CREATION OF AMERICA’S FIRST-EVER NATIONAL MONUMENT TO SODOMY
Federal officials, including Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, National Park Service Director Jonathan B. Jarvis and Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), will hold a listening session on May 9 to solicit feedback on the proposal. Barring a last-minute complication — city officials are still investigating the history of the land title — Obama is prepared to designate the area part of the National Park Service as soon as next month, which commemorates gay pride.

RESIDENT OBAMA IS POISED TO DECLARE THE FIRST-EVER NATIONAL MONUMENT RECOGNIZING THE STRUGGLE FOR GAY RIGHTS, SINGLING OUT A SLIVER OF GREEN SPACE AND PART OF THE SURROUNDING GREENWICH VILLAGE NEIGHBORHOOD AS THE BIRTHPLACE OF AMERICA’S MODERN GAY LIBERATION MOVEMENT.

Federal officials, including Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, National Park Service Director Jonathan B. Jarvis and Rep.

OBAMA ORDERS THE NATIONAL PARKS SERVICE TO BEGIN THE PROCESS:
