Speculation is increasing that the PA House will vote today on HB2381, a so-called "marriage protection amendment" that would have the potential to shut unmarried couples (gay and straight) out from domestic partner benefits, adoption rights, hospital visitation rights, and numerous other protections. If you're a PA resident (or know someone who is), please call (or have the person you know call) your PA state representative now to try to head off this attempt to scribble bigotry into the Pennsylvania state constitution. Full disclosure, I called my own rep (Republican) as well as a rep in a neighboring district (Democrat) whose campaign I'd assisted with. Today is the day to head this off - or to live with the consequences of not having successfully done so.
