Act to Repeal DOMA Now

Legislation to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) may be introduced in the House of Representatives as early as next week. We must ensure that the President, congress, and our senate leaders speak out and co-sponsor a repeal of this discriminatory legislation. DOMA denies same-sex couples from receiving federal benefits, even in states where marriages, civil unions, and domestic partnerships are legally sanctioned.

The momentum is on our side with the recent slide of victories in favor of equality, the time is now with a more progressive majority in place to eliminate DOMA.

Go to www.repealDOMAnow.org and join in the campaign for equal rights for all families.
