White House Releases Statement Denouncing Uganda’s Anti-Gay Law

Andy Towle February 24, 2014

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney this morning released a statement following the signing of Uganda's anti-gay law by President Museveni:

2_museveniInstead of standing on the side of freedom, justice, and equal rights for its people, today, regrettably, Ugandan President Museveni took Uganda a step backward by signing into law legislation criminalizing homosexuality. As President Obama has said, this law is more than an affront and a danger to the gay community in Uganda, it reflects poorly on the country's commitment to protecting the human rights of its people and will undermine public health, including efforts to fight HIV/AIDS. We will continue to urge the Ugandan government to repeal this abhorrent law and to advocate for the protection of the universal human rights of LGBT persons in Uganda and around the world.
