Sample Letter for Campaign

Subject: Stop Vilifying Iowa Families!

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

I'm outraged by your recent comments claiming that same-sex marriage is a "radical social idea" that "is a purely socialist concept."

Hundreds of same-sex couples in Iowa have now married. All they ask for is the same opportunities and responsibilities as other Iowans. These loving and committed couples deserve respect and equal representation from their elected officials.

Please stop vilifying Iowa families and start to represent ALL Iowans.

Sincerely,

Campaign Launched:
September 24, 2009
