Rally For Marriage Equality

On the afternoon of Friday, April 3, thousands of gay, lesbian, and ally friends and family joined in rallies across the state celebrating the Supreme Court's decision in support of marriage equality. Let's take this moment to rejoice in the unanimous vote for marriage, equality, and fairness, but we know the work continues.

Join us this week and in the coming months to make sure Iowa's progressive voice of faith and goodwill is heard in support of marriage equality. Progressive people of faith and goodwill are vital to making sure this affirmation of equality is not turned back. Take the messages of progressive people of faith and goodwill to your friends, family, houses of worship, co-workers and more.

Tell them:

- As a person of faith and goodwill, I believe the Court's decision upholds the spirit of Iowa's constitution which clearly states each of us has the right to equal protection and recognition under the law.

- As a person of faith and goodwill, I celebrate the Court's decision in affirming fairness and equality for all Iowa families.

- As a person of faith and goodwill, I believe this decision strengthens religious freedom and acknowledges the inherent worth of gay and lesbian families in our state.
