Election Day is coming soon

I haven't spoken up much about any of the politics stuff except for the Presidential race, but here's one issue I feel very strongly about...

There is an unfair ballot proposition that, if passed, will take away fundamental rights for some Californians.

Same-sex couples are part of our community. They are our neighbors, our co-workers, our friends and members of our family. They pay taxes, struggle like all of us with high gas prices, and work hard. They are bankers and small business owners, nurses who care for us and firefighters who protect our homes.

And if same-sex couples, like other loving and committed couples in California, want to get married -- to care for each other, protect and take responsibility for each other and be there for each other in times of greatest need, the law now allows that.

But Prop 8 would change that. It would mandate, under the laws of our state that one group of people would be treated differently from everyone else. I hope you’ll join me in voting NO on 8.

Please send this message to everyone you know in California, asking them to vote NO on Prop 8.
