FEDERAL MARRIAGE AMENDMENT ACT GOES TO A VOTE ON TUESDAY!

We need your help to send a message that the Senate won't forget.

This Monday is National Call-In Day, and thousands of people will be calling in to tell their Senators to vote NO on the Federal Marriage Amendment.

This weekend, we have an easy way for you to turn up the volume on the call-in day and let the voices of fair-minded Americans be heard: Flood your Senators’ voice mail.

Just pick up your phone over the weekend, call (202) 224 - 3121 and ask to leave a message on your Senators’ voice mail.

Here’s what you can say:

I am calling to urge you to vote no on the Federal Marriage Amendment.
Throughout American history, the Constitution has been amended to expand and protect the rights and liberties of the American people – it should not be used to single out some Americans for discrimination.
The Federal Marriage Amendment would single out GLBT Americans for separate and unequal treatment in the U.S. Constitution, the very document that is supposed to guarantee Americans' equality.
Do not write discrimination into the Constitution; vote NO on the Federal Marriage Amendment.
On Monday morning, voice mail boxes on Capital Hill will be overflowing, and the message will be clear: fair-minded Americans will not stand for the discriminatory Federal Marriage Amendment.

You can also send a postcard to your senator. The HRC will hand delivers these the day of the vote. Click the link below. Please let frinds and family know, post it on your blogs......THIS can and will effect most of us at somepoint in time. Its time to be heard!

Yup, I signed up earlier as well. Of course, with our dumbo Representatives and Senators... I may as well petition the wall.

Where do you go
When the wind doesn't blow
Are you still like the trees
Only bend with a breeze
