This is a personal note of request -- This topic is personal to me because it effects some people that I love.
Congress is about to vote on amending the U.S. Constitution to deny marriage equality to same-sex couples -- defacing the U.S. Constitution to take away people's rights. Our Senators will vote on this amendment in the next 48 hours.
It's urgent to speak up now and I'm asking for your help. This hateful divisiveness has no place in America. Please join me in saying so, at:

Equality is the civil right of every person. We can't let anyone, or any group, be singled out for discrimination based on who they are or who they love. Thank you for joining me in sending the note at the link above.
