D.C. Board of Elections to Rule on Marriage Referendum

This Wednesday, June 10, the D.C. Board of Elections and Ethics will convene to discuss whether the referendum requested by anti-marriage forces should be allowed to proceed.

Your civil rights should not be determined by a popularity contest.

Join us on Wednesday morning to show that D.C.'s LGBT community will not quietly sit by while agents from Maryland attempt to divide the District's citizens at the ballot box.
