Visit the Human Rights Campaign Fund’s Marriage Center for information on the legal battles occurring on the local, state and national level. Additionally the site include critical FAQ’s on why civil unions aren’t enough and on Marrying in San Francisco. While you’re there, you should Sign the Million for Marriage Petition and consider donating or becoming an HRC member regardless of whether you are gay, straight, queer, bi, trans, somewhere in between or none of the above.

Visit GLAAD to see how the media is or isn’t covering recent events and see what you can do in response.

Not all conservatives oppose gay marriage. You should read about that here: http://www.startribune.com/stories/484/4377797.html

Thanks to the ACLU you can send free faxes to Congress, stating your opposition to a consitutional ammendment banning gay marriage.

Thanks to NOW you can send a printed letter or email to your elected representatives opposing ammending the constitution to ban gay marriage.

Support Lambda Legal. These folks are great. Among other things, they intend to take any legal action necessary to make sure marriage licenses continue to be issued to same-sex couples in San Fran.

Do you have another link for me that’s very new news or a practical, what you can do sort of thing? Please email me, or comment on this post. I will update this entry regularly.

I was just curious and wanted ask to your opinion.

Through being involved in most of these originations over the years and observing the evolution of the personal lives of those around me (among other things) I have decided that the civil contract known as marriage is just that, a contract and therefore shouldn't exclude any desired configuration among consenting adults.

I remain active in this way because I buy into the "drop in the bucket” theory. I suspect you do as well.

Yup, exactly. It's a pragmatism thing. Also, so much has changed so much more quickly than I ever thought it would, it tells me it works.
