It was an incredible day in the New Hampshire Legislature. It was fascinating to see the process and the progress made throughout about 10 hours from mid-morning right through to about 6:00 PM.
It's happening. We're so close to having full marriage equality for all of our New Hampshire residents. And it's so great to see that here in this part of the country, we are surrounded by states, and Canada, that have full marriage equality. We just can't let New Hampshire be an island upon itself where discrimination continues.
SO -- we have much more work to do during the next few days.
There are some things WE must do -- all of us.
Even if you have already written to or called Governor John Lynch, do so again. If you haven't please do it now. OR, if you can please drop by the State House during the next few days and visit his second floor office -- the door is always open. Drop in and ask to see the Governor, or a staff member. He might have time and he enjoys talking with visitors. Or leave a note with the receptionist that you came by.
Or, send him an E-Mail or a FAX. Here is all that you need to know:
Office of the Governor
State House
25 Capitol Street
Concord, NH 03301
Telephone: (603)271-2121
FAX: (603)271-7680
Or, to send an E-Mail visit http://www.governor.nh.gov/con...
If you are gay or lesbian, send him your picture, tell your story. If you know someone who is gay or lesbian, tell him about them. Let him know we ALL count, and should be treated equally.
Also, New Hampshire Freedom To Marry has done great work on this cause and continues to need your help. So please visit http://nhftm.org/
Make a contribution, and then follow their suggestions for making a home-made lawn sign, or writing letters to editors, or getting petitions of your neighbors.
Whatever you do, PLEASE DO IT NOW. Governor John Lynch can make up his mind anytime on signing House Bill 436.
Let him know that most people in our state want full marriage equality for all of us who live in our state. This is about fairness, and being treated fairly.
We can do this. Equality. 2009. Let's bring it home.
