JAMES R. LITES To Whom It May Concern: When the Stars moved to Dallas in 1993 we were fortunate to encounter success early on, and we?ve cultivated what we consider to be the best fan base in the National Hockey League. Dallas was warm and welcoming when we came to this great city 25 years ago, and it remains so today. The Dallas Stars stands strongly opposed to any legislation perceived as discriminatory, including proposed bathroom legislation. We welcome fans from all over the globe, and our roster boasts players from half a dozen countries. Dallas welcomes all, and we welcome all. We?re thrilled that Dallas will host the NHL Draft next year, and we?re grateful that the NHL sees the true Dallas that we know and love, a Dallas that is friendly and vibrant. Dallas will be a wonderful host city and we?re grateful for the business. We are proud of our home and want every visitor to feel at home here, too, and that?s why we oppose this discriminatory bathroom legislation. Sincerely, DALLAS STARS HOCKEY CLUB 260i AVENUE OF THE STARS FRISCO. TX 75034 214.387.5582 DALLASSTARS.COM
