Dear Council Member,
This ordinance on sexual orientation and gender identity is dividing Fairmont, WV. It’s bad for business liability. And it’s bad for building bridges between different groups. Please Vote to Remove the 482 Ordinance from the City Agenda Indefinitely. Other West Virginia cities have already learned there is no need for this ordinance in Fairmont or anywhere.
Sincerely,
(your name)
Friday 3:30 in Fairmont, West Virginia
