While the fight for marriage equality certainly isn't over, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is already looking ahead to the next challenges our community will have to rally together to face. 

The momentum in terms of marriage is unstoppable, but what about the Employment Non-Discrimination Act which serves to protect LGBT people in the work place? What about immigration reform so that LGBT binational couples aren't unjustly separated? Keeping LGBT youth safe? Making sure our elderly community members are protected and taken care of?

Kolb argues that's not the case. Check out her letter after the jump!

Hindsight is 20/20, they say, but LGBT folks in Dallas certainly breathed a sigh of relief that failed city council candidate Richard C. Sheridan lost his bid for a place in government after they realized the kind of bigot bullet they just dodged. 

In a profanity and slur-laden message left on a reporter's voicemail, Sheridan said, "You sir are a cunt, bitch, coward ... you're a propagandist for the sodomite," -- a reference to Sheridan's openly-gay City Council opponent. 

Details follow.
