Amendment to Make Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transexual People Second Class Citizens…
comes to a vote in the Senate as early as June 5th, 2006. Your Congress has already passed it. Don’t allow the travesty to pass!
On the surface, the amendment will limit marriage to those between a man and a woman. Beneath the troubled waters, however, lie the sharks waiting to pounce. Should such an amendment pass, LGBT people will lose all rights. The courts will be forced to support the following; 1)LGBT people will not be able to have families, 2) Children of a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transexual parent can and will be taken away from that parent, 3) Partners will not be able to inherit one another’s assets when one partner dies, and 4) Partners will not even be allowed to be present in a dieing partner’s hospital room because they will by definition not be married ( that is family)!
And, the amendment will make it all the more reasonable to harass GLBT people at work and at their homes.
Write to your senator to state your position against THE AMENDMENT to limit the freedom of an entire class of people. Go to Free Speech Coalition Inc. to find out how.
God bless everyone, even the conservative and evangelical bigots and any Democratic Senators who allow this travesty to take place!
