The Lesbian Gay Rights Lobby is looking to you to help prevent the hate legislation that is scheduled for the State Affairs Committee next week. HJR 6 is tentatively scheduled on the calendar for next week. Call the LGRL to find out how you can testify before the committee. HJR 6 sets out to ban same-sex marriage and ban simple legal arrangements between partners, including power of attorney.
Contact the Members of State Affairs today and voice your opposition to the State Legislature legislating hate. While you're at it, ask them if they wouldn't mind taking care of the issues that are killing us over here...School Finance Reform, Teacher Pay Raises, Prison Overcrowding...
