Today is an unforgettable moment in California history. The state Senate of the largest state in of the nation just took a bold and giant step in the direction of equality by voting to end discrimination against tens of thousands of same-sex couples and their children. |
Ultimately, it wouldn't surprise me if this is a way for two different groups to raise as much money as possible and then join forces. We are suspicious of their motivation because we know they are motivated by wanting to take away the rights of our families. |
We now have the Senate of the largest state in the nation endorsing marriage equality. This undermines President Bush's claim that this effort is being undertaken by a few activist judges. |
We strongly urge Senators from both the Democratic and Republican Party to pass AB 1207 and then for Governor Schwarzenegger to sign it into law. Voters have the right to know whether candidates are willing to agree to refrain from using bias and prejudice as part of their election strategy or whether they intend to resort to the worst kind of election tactics. This legislation will ensure that voters know whether a particular candidate's moral values include running a morally ethical campaign. |
We're thrilled Erin Hamilton has agreed to join us at this year's Gala. What better reason to dance but in celebration of our honorees and their work to help us achieve a state of equality? Our guests are in for a truly memorable evening. |
