Help Us Legalize Same Sex Marriage In Delaware

This petition requests that all government officials, regardless of political party, religion, race, sex, or orientation recognize the need for equal rights concerning current marriage laws. You are being asked to consider the large homosexual population in America and their request for recognition and equal treatment and benefits that are freely given to heterosexual couples. These laws need to change in able to support the doctrines of the United States Constitution. The current laws have been found to be unconstitutional and promote intolerance in this country. The right given to two consenting adults, who love each other should not be awarded to some and denied to others. This is pure discrimination. We ask you to do everything in your power to protect the laws regarding equal marriage rights for all couples, heterosexual and homosexual. To do this, the right to marry must be available to all. The people of this country have elected you to better the conditions of this land and expect you to act upon the requests of its citizens. The opportunity for change is now. Please support equal marriage laws.

Marriage equality is happening in this country. Currently, lesbian and gay couples are entitled to all the state-level rights and benefits of marriage in Massachusetts, Iowa, Connecticut, Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire. In addition, lesbian and gay couples in New Jersey are able to enter into state-level civil unions, and there are broad domestic partnership laws in California, Oregon and the District of Columbia. In New York, after a 2008 court ruling and a directive subsequently issued by Governor David Paterson, valid out-of-state marriages by lesbian and gay couples must be legally recognized. Other states are taking hopeful steps toward marriage, and there are efforts to remove legal obstacles preventing lesbian and gay couples from receiving rights and responsibilities under federal law.
