say THANK YOU to pro-equality Democrats in Iowa and Vermont
The Issue
(from StonewallDemocrats.org)
I pledge to take two minutes to thank Democrats in Iowa for supporting the freedom to marry AND I pledge to take two minutes to thanks Democrats in Vermont for enacting marriage legislation.
This morning, the Vermont Senate and House of Representatives successfully voted to override the veto of Republican Governor Jim Douglas of Senate Bill 115. The Senate voted with 23 in favor of the override and five against. The House voted of 100 in favor of the override and 49 against. This guarantees all Vermonters the freedom to marry. This was the third time that a Republican Governor had vetoed marriage legislation passed by a Democratic legislature that would have allowed same-sex couples the freedom to marry. In California, Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger twice vetoed similar legislation passed by the California legislature.
One of the most powerful things that we can do as pro-equality Democrats is to hold our Democratic elected officials accountable on pro-equality issues. This week is a great opportunity to do just that.
This link will allow you to thank them all:
- Thank Democrats in Iowa for their support of the freedom to marry.
- Thank Democrats in Vermont for their successful override of the Governor's veto of marriage legislation.
