Tell John McCain to Stop Supporting Discriminatory Anti-GLBT Measures!
Target: Senator John McCain
Sponsored by: Human Rights Campaign
Sponsored by: Human Rights Campaign
You've probably seen countless news stories about John McCain's "maverick" record. But while he'd like you to believe he's a moderate, at the end of the day Sen. McCain marches in lockstep with the anti-GLBT right wing. Did you know:
* John McCain has publicly embraced the hateful California marriage initiative that would deny marriage rights to committed same-sex couples.
* In 2006, he appeared in a TV ad for a similar measure in Arizona.
* He doesn't believe GLBT couples should be able to adopt children.
Don't let Sen. McCain get away with embracing discrimination while telling us he's protecting GLBT rights. Don't let him tell us he's a maverick while supporting hate and bigotry.
Sign the petition and tell Sen. McCain to stop supporting measures that deny committed, adult couples the rights and responsibilities of marriage.

We live in a country that values equal rights. It should not be equal rights only for certain select groups, but equal rights for all!

I think it is terrible you support discrimination against gay couples. I personally know many gay couples and I belive they should have every right to marrige. I'm sorry you are too full of hatred to see this.

Everyone deserves to be happy, its a God-given right! Live and let live. Even if you don't personally accept homosexuals, hopefully you understand that it is unfair to treat homosexuals different. If you're going to discriminate against homosexuals, then I'm confused. I thought slavery and discrimination were over. What is our country really about? It certainly is not the land of the free. Let homosexuals be happy and give them the rights they deserve!

My best friends are a lesbian couple...they would both make wonderful parents and I would like to see them granted the right to marry and build a family. I've never seen such true love between two people.
