Today, the two year anniversary of the failed Civil Union law, it is crucial that our legislators hear from their constituents so Garden State Equality is asking everyone to take just
two minutes to make this crucial call so that the legislators will get all of the messages at once. We currently have a governor that said he would sign into law a same-sex marriage bill, yet his re-election is not guaranteed, which is why it is so important that we do this now.
Here is where you can easily find your elected officials:
http://eqfed.org/gse/home.htmlWe're asking everyone to leave a message with 3 things:
1. Your name
2. Full address
3. Phone number
And your message can go something like this:
"My name is ________ and I live at _________ and my phone number is _______. I'm a voter in your district and I'm calling on the anniversary of the failed civil union law to urge you to support marriage for same-gender couples."
It will make an even greater impact if everyone calls today during business hours after last night's three hours of phone banking.
Even if you think your legislator already supports same-gender marriage, they still need to hear from us to not only know that
we support same-gender marriage, but to encourage them to reach out to colleagues that may be on the fence over whether or not to support same-gender marriage in New Jersey.
Do you have two minutes today to make this call or to call any relatives or friends in New Jersey?
