If Michael Nutter is elected mayor, he has pledged that his first bill would be one to create an equitable tax treatment for domestic partners. That was his promise at last night's Liberty City candidate's forum.
From the press release:
Nutter said that the ordinance would fix a provision of the City’s domestic partnership law that was struck down by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Nutter was the original author of that law, which passed in 1998. “This new ordinance will further ensure fair and equitable treatment of domestic partners in Philadelphia,” he noted.
Meanwhile, Brady's been honored by the Philadelphia Gay Tourism caucus, at the kick-off ceremony for Rosie O’Donnell’s “R Family Vacations.” Philadelphia is the first major city to be chosen as a getaway destination for O'Donnell's vacation package.

Brady's endorsement by the PGTC was lead by Mark Segal of the PGN who has already endorsed him. Its like a double-dipping endorsement when the same guy can do it from two venues.
