In 1981, the DC City Council passed a sodomy repeal measure as part of the Sexual Assault Reform Bill. Like all measures passed by the Council, the bill went to Congress for approval. The religious right, led by the Moral Majority, lobbied against the bill and persuaded Congress to reject it. Since then, sodomy repeal measures have been introduced into the Council, but they have remained bottled up in the Judiciary Committee. Gay activists convinced Councilmember Jack Evans to circumvent the Judiciary Committee and attach the measure to an unrelated bill.
