Please don't turn your back on LGBT constituents

Dear Del. Arora,

Your vote could be the deciding vote on whether the state of Maryland recognizes full marriage equality for same-sex couples. I urge you to support marriage equality for same-sex couples, and to truly be a statesman in supporting the rights of all your constituents.

Supporting marriage equality is the right thing to do for the state of Maryland, and will go a long way toward bridging the equality gap that currently exists for same-sex couples in your state.

Please don't disappoint your LGBT constituents, or the progressive voices that helped you win election. In many ways this is the civil rights issue of our time, and your vote on this issue will be remembered for a long time to come.

Thank you for your time.
