Yum & Yuk

Hey all, I know there has been a lot of attention (and rightfully so) on the campaign to Vote No on California's Prop 8 but I also wanted to give a shout-out to those in Florida working on the campaign to Stop Proposition 2. The language of Prop 2 reads: "Inasmuch as marriage is the legal union of only one man and one woman as husband and wife, no other legal union that is treated as marriage or the substantial equivalent thereof shall be valid or recognized." In addition to being the fourth time Florida law would work to prohibit gay marriage, Prop 8 would have even more far-reaching consequences for all unmarried couples. The "intrusive amendment to the Florida Constitution will take away long established rights for ALL non-married Floridians. In 2008, Florida voters will be asked to vote on an amendment that would take away the ability to visit loved ones in the hospital, harm our seniors, eliminate insurance benefits for non-married couples, and require government to take an even larger role in all our lives." If you're in a rush, check out the Top 6 Reasons to Say No to Prop 2. I know we are all tight on money, but even a pledge of $5 shows your support, shows that those fighting the props aren't alone, and reminds the homophobic, close-minded, hateful people behind the proposals that they are the ones in the minority. Please take the time to learn about both Prop 8 and Prop 2.
