San Francisco , March 14, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A controversial former official from the Clinton administration is urging the U.S. Army to change its policy excluding transgendered people from serving in the military.

The purpose of the meeting, almost six months before the survey’s official end, was to obtain “suggestions for persu

According to an internal newsletter published for employees, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the agency that oversees federal employment issues, has met with officials at USDA responsible for developing the program. The newsletter, which calls the program “groundbreaking,” reports that the goal of collaboration with OPM is to spread USDA’s “ LGBT Special Emphasis Program”  across the federal government . “Talking about LGBT issues is not always easy because people have different perceptions and feelings based on their respective experiences or beliefs,” says the newsletter article. “However, it is imperative that we have these critical conversations about LGBT issues because LGBT inclusion is now part of offici
