Via Freedom to Marry:

Freedom to Marry header

Daniel,

To most of us, Love + Commitment = Marriage.

Not to the anti-gay National Organization for Marriage (NOM). NOM has launched a national tour promoting marriage discrimination against gay and lesbian couples.

In advertising their anti-gay bus tour, NOM referred to supporters of the freedom to marry as those who 'pillage the values of our Nation.'

NOM is escalating its anti-gay attacks and Freedom to Marry is meeting them head on.

To counter NOM's fear-mongering and to show America what being FOR marriage really looks like, Freedom to Marry and local and state equality groups have teamed up for Summer for Marriage, a series of pro-marriage events across the country in July and August.

To challenge NOM's anti-gay rhetoric, Freedom to Marry is:

  • Working with partner groups on a nationally coordinated campaign to push back on NOM's anti-gay attacks
  • Engaging in effective media outreach to show how marriage discrimination hurts same-sex couples.
  • Mobilizing Freedom to Marry supporters to participate in on-the-ground actions with local, state, and national partners.

This is the kind of on-the-ground action we need to change hearts and minds. State-by-state and city-by-city, Freedom to Marry and it's partner organizations are making the case that all loving and committed couples should be free to marry.

Join us - because we cannot allow NOM's distractions, distortions, and discriminatory agenda to go unanswered

Thanks for all you do,
