Stop the Federal Marriage Amendment
The Federal Marriage Amendment (AKA “Marriage Protection Amendment”) is a proposed amendment to the U.S. Constitution. If passed, it would make marriage for same-sex couples illegal everywhere in the U.S., no matter what individual states want to do. It will also ban other forms of partnership recognition, such as civil unions and domestic partnerships.
The U.S. Senate is scheduled to vote in early June. NGLTF, The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is organizing grassroots efforts to stop the amendment from passing. Take action now — contact your Senators and tell your friends and family to do the same.
