BREAKING -Prop 8 Hate Want to Dissolve the 18,000 California marriages

06-16-10 Melanie Nathan

BREAKING NEWS: “As the trial over California’s prohibition on same-sex marriage enters its final stage today, the ban’s sponsors are urging the judge to go a step further and revoke state recognition of the marriages of 18,000 gay and lesbian couples who wed before voters passed Proposition 8. Such an order would honor ‘the expressed will of the people,’ backers of the November 2008 ballot measure said Tuesday in their final written filing before Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker.” — San Francisco Chronicle, June 16.

This is absolutely outrageous and we can’t let the Prop 8 campaign get away with it. We need your help now to protect these 18,000 marriages.
