from Empire State Pride Agenda: Support Gov. Paterson’s Marriage Equality Bill

Ask Your Legislators to Support Gov. Paterson’s Marriage Bill:

Governor David Paterson has continued his long history of fighting for our community’s rights by introducing a marriage equality program bill in the New York State Legislature.

Now, Empire State Pride Agenda needs the support of the New York State Assembly and Senate to pass the marriage equality bill so that Gov. Paterson can sign it into law. The Assembly passed the marriage bill 85-61 in 2007, and now we need your Assemblymember’s support to pass this bill again this year. And for the first time ever this year, the pro-LGBT Majority Leadership in the State Senate has pledged to bring marriage to the floor for a vote when we have the support needed for the bill to pass. We need your Senator’s support to pass marriage equality in New York State!
The time is now to ask your legislators to support and vote for Gov. Paterson’s marriage bill. Your legislators need to hear from you!  For more information and to show your support:  http://eqfed.org/campaign/support_marriage_equality_bill?rk=V12Iga5qJ0XiE
