Washington State only needs one more senator to vote ‘yes’ so we can pass marriage equality.
Washington State is on the brink of passing Marriage Equality and if we act now we can make it a reality. With both the Governor and House of Representatives in support, right now only the Senate stands in the way of Equal Rights in Washington as it is ONE VOTE SHORT of the necessary 25 to legalize same-sex marriage. If you’re from any of the districts below, call/voicemail and e-mail your Senator because they listen to constituents before anyone else. Tell them your family votes in their district and why they should vote for Marriage Equality, Senate Bill 6239.
24 Senators have already committed to voting YES on equal rights! We only need ONE MORE Senator, so this is something we can accomplish. Invite to this event all Washingtonians you know who support equal rights so they can contact their Senators too!
Below is a list of Senators by area, not necessarily town, so if you’re close to one of these towns it’s probably your Senator.
