URGENT - Call the HRC Action Line today at 1-800-460-7513 and then
forward this e-mail to your friends.
The Human Rights Campaign has set up the HRC Action Line - a toll-free number to allow you to call your member of Congress at this critical
time.
What's happening: this week on Thursday September 30, the United States House of Representatives will vote on the Marriage Protection Amendment (formerly the Federal Marriage Amendment). It's critical that we
get as many calls into congressional offices now in order to demonstrate STRONG opposition to any effort to change the constitution.
Call the HRC Action Line at 1-800-460-7513. You will be prompted to enter your ZIP code.
Keep these talking points in front of you when you make the call. Tell your Representative:
You oppose the Marriage Protection Amendment, and you urge him/her to oppose this legislation - and ANY amendment to the Constitution on marriage; This amendment would write discrimination into the Constitution - constitutional amendments have historically been about protecting and expanding rights, not about discrimination Ask how your Representative will vote on the MPA Then please tell us if they said how the Representative will vote. Just drop us a line at field@hrc.org to let us know. This is important - it will tell us how to focus our efforts during these last three critical days.
The HRC Action Line will only be active from now until Monday - so please call 1-800-460-7513 today!
