NOM Email Of The Day

"Dear Marriage Supporter, We need your help right away! Yesterday, the Rhode Island House Judiciary Committee voted to send to the floor of the House of Representatives a bill redefining marriage. The vote on the floor of the House is scheduled for TOMORROW — Thursday, January 24 at 4:00 PM — so time is of the essence! Please forward this email to all of your friends and family right away, and share it on Facebook and Twitter. We pro-marriage Rhode Islanders need to SHOW UP AT THE STATE HOUSE on Thursday at 3:00 PM for the vote and crowd the galleries with support for marriage, family, the rights of voters, and the well-being of children. With the Supreme Court hearing cases on same-sex marriage in just a few short weeks, the eyes of the nation will be on the Rhode Island legislature to see how they decide this issue. Today, you and other pro-marriage Rhode Islanders need to send a message loud and clear to the political powers in Providence: DON’T MESS WITH MARRIAGE! Marriage is too important a matter to be left to the whims of heavily lobbied politicians and the special interest groups padding their pockets." - Also posted on NOM's Rhode Island website.
