HISTORY IS BEING MADE RIGHT NOW!!!!Finally!! We are making some headway. The court's decision cited that the voter intitiative violated the Constitution's equal protection and due process rights clauses. YEAH IT DID! Judge Vaughn Walker offered a 136-page decision in the case of Perry v. Schwarzenegger, rejecting Proposition 8, which was passed by voters in November 2008. In part the Judge states:
"Plaintiffs do not seek recognition of a new right. To characterize plaintiffs' objective as "the right to same-sex marriage" would suggest that plaintiffs seek something different from what opposite-sex couples across the state enjoy -- namely, marriage. Rather, plaintiffs ask California to recognize their relationships for what they are: marriages."
THANK YOU!! Now, of course, an appeal is already underway by those who oppose equality, so the fight is far from over. If you want to help in what is sure to be an expensive fight go HERE. Every bit will help in gaining equality for all citizens in the United States. This fight may go all the way to the Supreme Court. Let's fight!
