Call for Senator Buttars Resignation

The All For One Initiative is calling on us to contact Utah Governor Jon Huntsman as well as the Senate President Michael Waddoups and urge them to speak up in favor of Senator Buttars submitting his resignation. The senator has recently called "gays the greatest threat to America" among other highly offensive comments. The current and past comments by this senator illustrate his lack of ability to represent all Utahn's due to his racist and homophobic rhetoric.

Please use the contact info below to urge them to speak in favor of his resignation.

Tell Utah Representatives to Support Common Ground Initiative!

Governor Huntsman supports the Common Ground Initiative. Three recent polls indicate a majority of Utahns support basic rights for gay and transgender people. One of the most outspoken proponents of Amendment 3, BYU law professor Lynn Wardle, admits the amendment allows for certain benefits and he debunks the ‘slippery slope to marriage’ argument used by Common Ground Initiative opponents. There is Common Ground. Gay and transgender Utahns are in need of the protections afforded in this legislation. (Equality Utah)
