Take Action!


Tell the Senate: “I support marriage equality for all. It’s time to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).”

Marriage should be defined as a union between two loving partners. The Defense of Marriage Act enshrines discrimination into our federal laws by treating some couples as less than others.

It’s time to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and give all Americans true equality before the law. Sign the petition to send the message to Congress that Americans support equality and want the Defense of Marriage Act repealed now.

When pulling together a panel for a Congressional hearing on birth control, wouldn’t you think it would have at least one woman on it? Come on! This is what Rep. Darrell Issa, the House Oversight Committee Chairman, said when turning away the sole female voice that would have been heard:

“As the hearing is not about reproductive rights and contraception but instead about the Administration’s actions as they relate to freedom of religion and conscience, he believes that Ms. Fluke is not an appropriate witness.”
