The pop music and fashion icon has transformed her website, www.LadyGaga.com, into an action page directing people to SLDN's Repeal DADT page.

To put a face on GLBT veterans of the armed forces, video and photo journalist Jo Ann Santangelo is taking a 30-day journey across the United States interviewing and photographing veterans in a project she is calling "Proud to Serve."
