About this Petition Petition Letter

Today the Washington, D.C. council finally voted to support marriage equality.

Mayor Adrian Fenty of D.C. promised to sign the civil rights bill, but U.S. Congress needs to listen to our voices of equality and urge them to respect the City of D.C.'s decision.

Send the letter below to our U.S. Congress because they are the only ones that can decide the major fate of this civil rights bill.
