wwcitizenVERMONT ENACTS MARRIAGE EQUALITY; national right wing announces it will target New Jersey next
This morning, both houses of the Vermont state legislature overrode the Vermont Governor's veto of the marriage equality bill - and the process in Vermont is now over. Marriage equality will take affect in Vermont on September 1st. After nine years of a civil union law, Vermont legislators have seen that civil union laws do not provide equality and will NEVER provide equality as real marriage equality would.
Meanwhile, the National Organization for Marriage has sent an email to its members across the country asking them to email New Jersey legislators. All of us in New Jersey must now redouble our efforts to fight back and win marriage equality here in our own home state.
Here you write to New Jersey state legislators telling them to look at Vermont's lead - and that you've had enough.
