Guest guest Posted August 17, 1999 Report Share Posted August 17, 1999 ** Original sent to Senator Evan Bayh ** Dear Senator Bayh, As the parent of a young child born with a form of dwarfism, I am deeply offended by the Democratic National Committee's web page http://www.democrats.org/sevendwarves/index.html. Having voted for you on multiple occasions, I would find it very disturbing that you could condone such a mockery. Little People of America is the largest organization in the world devoted to people of short stature. In 1996, the Mark Hotel in Indianapolis, Indiana hosted the Little People of America National Conference welcoming nearly 1,000 people with dwarfism along with their families. May I remind you, that then Governor Evan Bayh wrote, " It is a pleasure to extend greetings and welcome you to Indiana for the Little People of America Convention. As members of this association, you are to be commended for your dedication in supporting the needs of short stature individuals and their families. " I invite you now to show your dedication and support in meeting the needs of short stature individuals and their families by pressing the Democratic National Committee to immediately remove this offensive and degrading web site. Very truly yours, Clifford E. Registration / Finance Chairperson 1996 LPA National Conference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
