2024 WV Senate race: on Civil Rights


Glenn Elliott: Supports city ordinance to protect LGBT community

Elliott said he's encouraged by the Wheeling Human Rights Commission's approval of a resolution urging city council to adopt protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender residents. The resolution urges council to recognize the LGBT community as one lacking equal protection under the law and rectify this at the city level. Mayor Glenn Elliott said he's pleased by this step but understands a long and detailed process will be required to finalize an actual ordinance.
