About this Petition Pledge

Target: Governor Schwarzenegger
Sponsored by: Care2.com

SIGN THE PETITION

Ever since Proposition 8 was approved in California, same-sex couples have been under attack -- forced to untangle confusing, irrational and unequal situations regarding the status of their marriages.

Once Prop. 8 was passed, the legal certainty of all same-sex marriages for couples living in California was in jeopardy. Thankfully, a new bill is in the California legislature that will guarantee that couples who married outside the state prior to the passage of Prop 8 are still married, and those who marry out-of-state in the future won't be treated as legal strangers within California.

Don't let Prop 8 continue to destroy the lives of LGBT families in California. Help keep the pressure on Governor Schwarzenegger until the freedom to marry is restored for same-sex couples.
