Hi,

Did you hear that Rep. Nadler just introduced the Respect Marriage Act to repeal DOMA?

The Defense of Marriage Act unfairly singles out legally married same-sex couples for inequitable treatment, denying those couples more than 1,100 federal protections and responsibilities that otherwise apply to married couples. Repealing it would be a big step toward winning full federal equality for LGBT people.

I just sent a message to my Congressmember urging them to co-sponsor the Respect Marriage Act. Can you join me and send one to your representative?

Just click here:

Repealing DOMA is just one step towards full equality for all Americans. We can't stop until everyone is treated the same under the law.

Thanks for helping out!

My Congresswoman is gay.

Have I mentioned how much I love where I live? <3

I hate you, lol. Not a damn one of my congresspeople will do a thing with my e-mail. I sent it anyway, but it's hard not to feel that it was POINTLESS.

I found this while working on a project for class. I can't wait for the day that I can actually believe that shirt.

As this law is about me and my life (in some ways) I'm happy to do so. And, no, I hadn't heard, so thanks! :D
