Stop President Bush's Proposed Ban on Homosexual Marriages

No Constitutional Ban on Gay Marriage!
In the last few weeks, thousands of gay and lesbian couples expressed their love and commitment to each other in San Francisco, California, in the ceremony of marriage.

How does President Bush react to these celebrations of love and familial stability? By proposing an amendment to the U.S. Constitution banning marriage for gays and lesbians.

That's right: President Bush wants to write discrimination against and estimated 10% of the U.S. population into our Constitution. We oppose this amendment because:
1. Constitution is to protect our freedoms, not impose discrimination.
2. Bush argues that the institution of marriage is religiously "sacred" which violates the covenants of separation of church and state.
3. Bush has bigger problems that he needs to address!
Instead of addressing major problems with the US economy, unemployment, the war in Iraq, climate change, terrorism, and the global AIDS crisis; the Bush administration would rather play political games with the lives, relationships and rights of these American citizens.
Please join us in urging Bush to stop wasting the country's time and drop his proposed ban on gay marriage!

Dear President Bush,

Marriage should not be defined as a union specifically between a man and a woman, but a union between two loving people who wish to share their lives with each other. Civil unions and marriages between homosexual parters should not be looked upon any differently than heterosexual marriages.

The choice to acknowledge same-sex unions should be something dealt with on a state level, much like the amount of time partners must live together before declaring civil union.

Marriage is a matter of the church, synagogue, temple, mosque, or wherever else a person chooses to express their faith. Please, remember to keep church and state separate, and not to impose your personal opinions upon your fellow countrymen.
