New TV ad! Help us stay on air!

Today we are releasing our second ad featuring another real New York family talking about the need to pass a marriage equality bill. But in order to get this ad on air across the state, we need your help today!

Our new ad features Karen Schuster from Rochester, NY and two of her children. Karen wants all of her kids to be treated equally by New York State. Her 23-year old daughter Jessica looks forward to the day when she can marry the person she loves. Her 19-year old gay son Luke, however, feels like he is less of a citizen because he will not be allowed to one day marry the person he loves.

Like Barb and Don Crawford in our first ad that has been running on television for the past two weeks, Karen, Luke and Jessica demonstrate how the denial of civil marriage rights for same-sex couples affects entire families—parents who want their children to have all of the same opportunities that they have and siblings who can’t understand why their brothers and sisters are not treated equally under the law.

We need your help to continue our ad campaign so New Yorkers can hear these stories of real New York families. Donate today to help us get this ad on the air.

Already thousands of New Yorkers across the state have seen our ad campaign and have let their State Senators know that they expect action to end this inequality. Let’s keep the pressure up! Help us stay on air until we get the marriage equality bill on the Senate floor for a vote.
