Governor Romney is at it again, trying to score political points off the backs of same-sex couples and their families. Last week, by a vote of 109-87, a majority of Massachusetts legislators voted to derail our opponents' plans to write discrimination into our constitution and end marriage equality.
This Sunday afternoon, Governor Romney will lead a rally on the State House steps to further his presidential ambitions by using marriage equality as a divisive wedge issue. Since we began our campaign to protect marriage equality almost exactly three years ago, we've countered our opponents' message of fear and divisiveness with an even more powerful message of love and equality. Please join us across the street from the State House at 1 PM on Sunday to show your support for marriage equality and the Legislature's action. Bring your friends and family, along with signs displaying your support. The event will not last long, so please take an hour or two out of your day and stand up to Governor Romney and those who would take us back to a darker time.
Also, if you haven't done so already, please make sure you thank the 109 courageous legislators who took a principled stand against discrimination at last week's Constitutional Convention. Contact your legislators or see the full list.
I hope to see you at the State House this Sunday.
Thank you,
