Efforts are already underway in the legislature to repeal
New Hampshire’s popular 2009 law that allows gay and lesbian couples to
marry. Right now possible votes could be on January 5th, 11th, and 18th. The 5th is very unlikely. Each of
these days could be the day they spring a vote on us and we need to be
fully prepared to fight back each time.
In order to do this Standing Up for New Hampshire Families put
together a comprehensive program for session days that will ensure we
get the highest number of votes possible to show our strength as we move
forward to upholding the Governor's veto. To put this plan into action they are looking for committed people to be at the state house in several
capacities on these session days.
If you can't help in that capacity you can take action now and let your state elected officials know that you
oppose repeal by following this link to contact all your legislators about this issue. On the day of a vote use the"Current Officials" tab above to call legislators and tell them to support marriage for all the people of New Hampshire or send them e-mails reminding them of your stance and their duty to you. For some reason the site form incorrectly lists Cataldo and Pitre as Democrats. They are not, don't be fooled. In district three, Representative Bob Perry is the only Democrat on that list.
