Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Freedom to Marry Coalition of MA.

The short explanation of this alert was:

Please take a moment to contact your state senator and representative to tell them you oppose taking away fundamental rights through the ballot initiative process.

The petition amendment seeks to take away equal marriage rights from gay and lesbian citizens across the Commonwealth. It is important that the Constitutional Rights of a law abiding minority are not left up to a popular vote of the majority. This is the basic guarantee of our constitutional democracy.

We urge you to tell legislators why you oppose taking marriage rights away by telling personal stories. Everybody gay or straight, old or young has a personal story to tell. Please share your thoughts.

On January 2, 2007, the Constitutional Convention voted to advance the latest amendment. It only needs 25% of the legislature in the next Constitutional Convention on June 14th to place this on the ballot in 2008. It is important that our legislators secure marriage equality and move on to other issues critical to our Commonwealth. Please tell your legislators to move on and secure marriage equality.
