McDonald's "clarifies" membership in the NGLCC

NGLCC Web site clearly shows McDonald's is a "Corporate Partner and Organizational Ally"


McDonald's is still trying to distort their support for the homosexual agenda by twisting words. While McDonald's says it is not a member of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, the NGLCC website proudly lists them as a "Corporate Partner and Organizational Ally." In a telephone call from McDonald's Vice-President Jack Daly, on May 2, he confirmed to AFA that it gave $20,000 to the NGLCC.

In addition, Daly told AFA that Richard Ellis, vice president of communications for McDonald's, is a "gay man" and personally approved the $20,000 donation to the NGLCC. Mr. Daly also claimed that Richard Ellis was elected to the NGLCC board as a private citizen and not a representative of McDonald's. Yet, Richard Ellis is listed on the NGLCC website as Vice President of Communications, McDonald's USA.

There is more:

So dedicated to promoting gay activities on public streets, McDonald's sponsored the 2007 San Francisco Gay Pride parade with a television commercial. In the ad, McDonald's brags that it is "a company that actively demonstrates its commitment to the gay and lesbian community." Watch the ad.

Take Action!
Call your local McDonald's and tell the manager that you want McDonald's to remain neutral in the culture war.
If you have not already done so, send an e-mail to McDonald's asking the company to remain neutral in the culture war.
Please take a few minutes and invite your friends to AFA ActionAlert.
