About this Petition Petition Letter
Why This Is Important

The failure of President Obama and other elected leaders to actively support efforts to defeat ballot measures designed to take away our rights must end. Our community must stand together and stop endorsing and funding candidates who don't support our equality 100%. We should only stand with those who do.

Sign our petition to President Obama and his administration. Urge him to join the federal legal challenge to Prop 8. Then, ask everyone you know to do the same.

Join the Federal legal challenge to California's 'Proposition 8'

Dear President Obama

I urge you to immediately file a brief in the federal court challenge to Prop 8, a 2008 ballot initiative from the State of California, and ask the court to rule that it is unconstitutional to allow a majority to take away the rights of a minority.

Signed,

[Your name]
