"With this day, has continued to express the Edil, like we did last May 17, when the International Day was celebrated Against Homophobia and Transphobia, we denounce discrimination against gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals, and thus advance their rights throughout the world. We remember the constitutional right to non-discrimination on grounds of gender, without having to suffer for it any assault on their dignity or physical or moral integrity. "

In addition, Edil, he pointed out that this "gesture today, is accompanied by a motion, which we will present next Friday in the full City Council for the implementation in our town a series of proposals to deepen the struggle for Equality, for a real change of social mentality, to open the minds of people towards a diverse and plural society like we have. a prosperous and modern Cehegín can not be understood without a change of mentality and a real struggle for Equality each and every one of the citizens of our municipality.

The Councillor also recalled that last May, the Regional Assembly of Murcia, approved unanimously by all groups a Law on Social Equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, transgender, and intersex and public policies against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia.

This, which was approved in the BORM May 31, says in its preamble that "This law wants to protect all victims of attacks by identity or sexual orientation in any field, ensuring that hate crimes do not have any coverage legal, institutional, political or social. this is because, despite the clear and evident progress in our society, still remnants of hatred and prejudice towards people with non-heterosexual orientation hide ".
