Dear Board Members,
This is something I believe most of us can agree on. I know many of you are probably outraged by the same-sex marriages being performed in America - in bold defiance of existing state and federal laws.
I am, too. I just joined the American Center for Law and Justices nationwide Petition to Preserve Marriage campaign and added my name to the petition. We must let Congress know how we feel about this critical issue. I hope youll also add your name immediately - this campaign must be a success!
Please read the email below from the ACLJ to get more information about how you can help stop same-sex marriage!
----------
This may be your best opportunity to take decisive action to preserve marriage as between one man, one woman.
The ACLJ has launched a NATIONWIDE PETITION CAMPAIGN so you can voice your opposition to same-sex marriage to Congressional leaders - and call for a constitutional amendment that defines marriage as being between one man and one woman.
ADD YOUR NAME TO OUR ONLINE PETITION TO PRESERVE MARRIAGE TODAY -- and forward on to your friends and family after signing.
www.aclj.net/aclj/Preserv...refer=2031
We want to gather thousands of signatures from ACLJ members like you through this campaign.
We will then forward these petitions to key Congressional leaders:
* Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist
* Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle
* Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert
* House Majority Leader Tom DeLay
* House Democratic Leader Nancy Pesoli
We will urge them to heed the Presidents call on February 24:
Today I call upon the Congress to promptly pass, and to send to the states for ratification, an amendment to our Constitution defining and protecting marriage as a union of man and woman as husband and wife.
Per the Constitution, two-thirds of Congress must pass a constitutional amendment ... which must then be ratified by three-fourths of the states.
This is a tremendous challenge.
But IT MAY BE OUR BEST CHANCE of stopping same-sex marriage in the United States!
It is clear that existing state and federal laws may not keep activist judges and local officials from marrying same-sex couples ... even if it means they are committing a CRIME!
Please TAKE A STAND TODAY. Add your name to our online Petition to Preserve Marriage right away.
www.aclj.net/aclj/Preserv...refer=2031
This may be the start of a long, intense fight. But were absolutely committed to protecting God-ordained marriage in America.
Already we are fighting to stop same-sex marriages in Massachusetts and California - while simultaneously:
* Focusing our resources into both the legislative and legal arenas that can protect marriages as between one man and one woman.
* Working with key leaders in Washington to help pass an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to define marriage as being between one woman and one man that will hold up in court.
* Fighting for the national DEFENSE OF MARRIAGE ACT and other defense of marriage laws in various states.
* Taking on organizations in the courts, in local governments, and wherever marriage is under attack.
BUT WE CANNOT DO THIS ALONE.
Make your voice heard today - through our online Petition to Preserve Marriage!
www.aclj.net/aclj/Preserv...refer=2031
Congress must know the will of the people. They must be pressed to take action quickly. They must hear from Americans like YOU!
So please ADD YOUR NAME to our nationwide Petition to Preserve Marriage campaign right away.
www.aclj.net/aclj/Preserv...refer=2031
After you have signed the petition, please forward it on to your friends and family.
Thank you for taking a stand to preserve marriage!
