Im engaged to a wonderful fiance and I love him deathly. . Michigan is now under debate rather they should ban gay marriage or not.

Triangle Foundation, American Friends Service Committee and other GLBT organizations are calling for an emergency lobby day at the Michigan Capitol.

On Wed., February 11 beginning at 9:30 AM folks from around the state should come to Lansing to lobby
their State Representatives and State Senators to oppose Senate Joint Resolution E and House Joint Resolution U.

These resolutions, if passed by 2/3 of each chamber of the legislature, would go on the ballot this November.
If passed by the citizens, it would ban marriage equality for gay and lesbian couples and eliminate any chance for domestic partner benefits or civil unions.

Show up at 9:30 AM at 404-405 in the Capitol Building. Talking points and other materials will be there.
A lobby training will be offered for folks who feel they need it.

Please schedule meetings with your legislators in advance.

Take I-96 to 496 Downtown to Grand Ave. going north to Michigan Avenue. Go West.
Park Anywhere.

So yeah thers a rally on the 11th at the captial of Lansing. And I am unable to show up since I have no ride. I am for gay marriage why? We all are human and we have rights too.

thanks

I live in michigan too (about an hour north of detroit). Thanks for posting this. I didn't even realize this is going on. Doesn't michigan already have a law on the books banning gay marriage? or is this to amend the state constitution?Sadly, cant make it to lansing on the 11th, I've got to be in Detroit for school. Will make some calls to my legislatures though.

**I'm willing to find out what impossible means**
