Dear Jan,

In just 10 days, same-sex couples will be issued marriage
licenses for the first time in Massachusetts. As the newlyweds
celebrate their marriages, we know that our ultra-conservative
opponents will use this historic moment to viciously attack them
and all GLBT families.

We - all of us who support marriage equality - must demonstrate
our strength and unity at this critical time. Here's one
important way you can help: Right now, almost 450,000 people
have signed the Million for Marriage petition. By May 17th, we'd
like to get to 500,000 - a half-million people.

Please, take a minute to think of one more person that you could
persuade to stand up for equality. Click here to send them a
message right now:

Or forward this e-mail to your friends and ask them to click the
following link to sign the petition:

Our voices - 500,000 loud and strong -- will help counter the
right-wing extremists' wave of fear and lies, and will give hope
and support to the couples about to marry in Massachusetts.
Thank you, as always, for your actions today.

Many thanks,

Cheryl A. Jacques
President
