Cleveland Log Cabin GOP group returns after 5 years

by Dale Giesige

Cleveland-After a five-year absence and some bumps along the road, the Log Cabin Republicans of Cleveland is coming to life again after becoming officially chartered, ready to expand its wings in greater Cleveland. Gay and lesbian Republicans are an underrepresented part of the Cleveland gay community who are eager for their political voices to be heard. Log Cabin helps to provide that voice for GLBT Republicans in northeast Ohio.

Members of the Log Cabin Republicans work hard to represent the local gay community on every level. They educate the GLBT community on the importance of working with the Republican Party to help further goals of the gay community. Log Cabin also works to educate and inform the Republican leadership and members about gay issues, breaking down barriers that keep everyone from communicating on important social issues. Group members are active in the Republican Party, on boards of gay and community organizations, even running as candidates in important local elections.

Starting this year, Log Cabin Republicans of Cleveland will be working with the Cleveland Stonewall Democrats on state and local

GLBT issues that need to be addressed, combining resources for more effective action.

Future speakers at group meetings will include State Senators Jeff Armbruster and Robert Spada, as well as State Representatives Sally Conway Kilbane and Jim Trakas. Past speakers have included Jim Trakas, Patrick Shepherd, president of Cleveland Stonewall Democrats, Mike W. Wise, the executive committee chairman of the Cuyahoga County Republican Party and Dr. David Smith of the Cleveland Lesbian-Gay Center.

GLBT Republicans in Cleveland are probably the best-kept gay secret in Ohio. Log Cabin Republican chapters flourish in Columbus and Toledo, but the resources of GLBT Republicans are comparatively untapped in northeast Ohio. The Log Cabin Republicans of Cleveland aim to be an important resource for those untapped voices and to be an influential participant shaping local and national politics.

Dale Geisige is the co-chair of Log Cabin Republicans of Cleveland.
