The Governor has NOT vetoed our marriage equality bill yet, and he has been known to reverse his decisions before. Every one of us can have an impact TODAY!
First, his Capitol office:
Call (916) 445 - 2841
On the phone tree, Press 2 for Issues
Press 1 for AB 849
Press 1 in support of AB 849
Make this call and get everyone you know to call... and call... and if you are having trouble getting through, there are other numbers written below in a message I copied for you from Steve Hansen, our EQCA lobbyist. He gives other numbers to try. I just had to call about 5 times before I got through, so persistence works.
Also: email the Governor @ www.govmail.ca.gov/ and the more personal, the better. Please be dignified and express yourself passionately but with the highest standards - let's not look as ugly as our opponents often do.
Let's barrage the Governor and not let up until he does whatever he is
going to do!
In hasty unity,
Chari, chair, Sonoma chapter EQCA
IT IS NOT TOO LATE!
We must move quickly and with one voice to ask Governor Schwarzenegger to re-think his position. He has not actually vetoed the bill yet because the bill hasn’t even reached his desk. Our lives hang in the balance. Governor Schwarzenegger has the power to make history and secure protections for our families are you willing to help us?
It doesn't MATTER if you're in California or not; the whole country is watching and waiting to see what happens.
Here is what you can do:
SIGN our petition to the Governer: click here. [ Link ]
PHONE and FAX the Governer's offices (contact information below).
If you are in Sacramento, join Equality California at the State Capitol TONIGHT for a vigil and rally asking the Governor not to shut the door on civil rights and protections for tens of thousands of same-sex couples and their children.
Vigils at the Governer's discrict offices will also be heald in cities across the state (see information below).
