<p><b>Description</b></p>
<p>Marriage equality is under attack in Maine, and no matter where you live, there's something you can do about it.</p>
<p>Far right extremists have imported their national anti-equality agenda to the Pine Tree state with the goal of stripping away marriage rights. The same group that bankrolled Prop 8 in California has set up shop in Maine and has out fundraised the local effort by 2-1.</p>
<p>Despite that, polls show fairness is winning by a slim margin, thanks to the local grassroots No On 1 effort to protect Maine equality.</p>
<p>We can't leave them alone to stand their ground. We need to rally to support the local effort! No matter where you live, there is a way to help win this fight.</p>
<p><b>**All you need is a phone and a computer with an internet connection. No long distance fees, no dialing- the web-based software does it all.**</b></p>
<p>With 500 people ACROSS AMERICA, donating 2.5 hours of time, we can accomplish 1250 volunteer hours!</p>
<p><b>This is a VIRTUAL PHONE BANK on Sunday, September 27th to SAVE MAINE FROM RIGHT-WING EXTREMISTS, and pave the way for a repeal of Proposition 8 in California!</b></p>
