Same Sex "Marriage" Resistance Rally & Referendum filing

 


ULTRA Teen Choice co-founders Stacey and Richard Urban

On December 15, 2009, the Washington DC City Council approved same sex "marriage" in Washington DC.

Join us on Wednesday, December 16th, at 11:00am, in front of the Board of Elections and Ethics Bldg , 441 4th St NW, Washington DC for the filing of a referendum that will ask the voters to accept or reject the same-sex "marriage" bill. We the people should be able to decide whether we want same-sex "marriages" in our city.

The referendum will follow much of the same path as the current marriage initiative. We will file the referendum with the Board of Elections, have a hearing before the Board, receive a decision from the Board, and pursue a court appeal of any denial by the Board. The referendum on the same-sex "marriage" bill will not replace the current marriage initiative, but, at least for the time being, be pursued alongside it. One advantage to this approach is the possibility of staying the same-sex "marriage" bill and preventing the bill from going into effect until the people of the District have had their chance to vote on the issue of same-sex "marriage".

I cannot tell you how important it will be for you to be there. We really want to show the Country that nothing is going to stop us for standing up for marriage.

Will you join us?
Use the convenient email tool to send a message to all DC councilmembers, the Mayor and key council staff regarding your opposition to the redefinition of marriage that has been foisted upon the people of Washington, DC by the City Council members.
