Friends, It was announced last week that Ruth Bader Ginsburg's life has inspired an upcoming major motion picture. The film, "On the Basis of Sex," will highlight Justice Ginsburg's life-long fight for gender equality and star Oscar winner Natalie Portman as the Notorious RBG. Pretty amazing, right? As happy as I am to see RBG get some love from Hollywood, I am far more excited by her recent actions at the Supreme Court. A few weeks ago, Ruth Bader Ginsburg made headlines across the world for her support of Marriage Equality. "Eviscerating" arguments against the redefinition of marriage, Justice Ginsburg presented a scathing critique of "traditional marriage" (i.e., a non-egalitarian institution where women were subordinate to their husbands) and defended the right of all Americans to marry whomever they love. (To read more, check out the linked article.) Another piece of exciting news is that our petition has just passed 7,000 signatures-- that's more than the population of Shelburne, Vermont! This a huge milestone for the petition and a testament to your advocacy. If you have not yet promoted the petition and would like to spread the word, here are links you can use to share it: Twitter: http://bit.ly/1J6mCWJ Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1dXLnbR Until next time, Yael
