When the Washington state legislature introduced a bill that would expand domestic partnership benefits in 2009, you stood up and told your legislators to do the right thing. On Valentine’s Day, Senator Ed Murray and House Rep. Jim Moeller introduced legislation that would grant marriage equality to same-sex couples. We need your help again to make sure that your legislators know what matters most to you. http://www.hrcactioncenter.org/site/R?i=YuaE4dj8GIeGpByrH3OHpg..
Please join our friends at Equal Rights Washington at their annual Lobby Day in Olympia on March 22 to tell your legislators that equality for all communities, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity is important to you. Equal Rights Washington will make sure that you have all of the tools and information needed to make your visit a success. http://www.hrcactioncenter.org/site/R?i=G2sU6GoO-OwaOJCp_xWZOA..
