Glenn recently offered financial support to Holland City Council candidates who voted against updating the city’s human rights ordinance to include sexual orientation and gender identity. Earlier this month, he claimed that, “gays are not good employees,” making false arguments to attack hardworking Michiganders. In 2004, Glenn contributed to Michigan’s discriminatory constitutional amendment that denies marriage to gay and lesbian couples.
Emily Dievendorf, Director of Policy for Equality Michigan said:
“Gary Glenn is an extremist that has made a career out of fear mongering and the generous dispersion of lies about any community or individual that does not fit into his narrow and biased interpretation of the world. Gary Glenn challenging Senator Stabenow is a ridiculous proposition. Sen. Stabenow consistently demonstrates the priorities, reason, and strong leadership that are the makings of an excellent public servant while Gary Glenn has become a symbol of hate, bullying and polarization. He would be a candidate that few sitting or prospective legislators should feel at ease aligning themselves with. Gary could do his friends a favor by getting out of and staying out of the political spotlight.”
