URGENT!!! It’s NOT OVER, call your Legislators NOW!!!
April 9th, 2009

Right-wing extremists are resorting to underhanded tactics in an attempt to undermine legislative leadership and take away the freedom to marry! While legislative leadership stood firm this morning, extremists are attempting to overthrow the House chair and push an anti-marriage amendment to the floor!

We NEED you to call your Representative in the next hour to firm up our support! Find your Representative here, then place a call immediately. http://eqfed.org/ct/1d2FtEM1LYqM/

House Switchboard: 515-281-3221

Tell them to stand firm with legislative leadership and oppose this distracting and divisive move. With all the challenges Iowa is facing, it’s time for our elected officials to get back to work for Iowa families!

http://eqfed.org/ct/112FtEM1LYqA/

PS - If you don’t have time to call, please email your legislator now!

1. Links didn't work for me
But went to the Iowa Legislature website to get the proper email addresses. I will be sending them shortly.
These religious zealots are really pissing me off.

2. Okay... NOW it's over! Whew!
Fair-minded Legislators stand strong: BIG win for Iowans!

Resisting divisive attempts by the extreme right, the Iowa House blocked movement on a Constitutional amendment that aimed to take away the freedom to marry in Iowa. With your help, our fair-minded legislators stood strong, voting 54-44 to get back to work on issues of common concern to Iowa families!
