Hat tip to the Mad Professah!
The Empire State Pride Agenda has released a new ad supporting marriage equality in New York State. Check it out.
It is frustrating to see so many of my American neighbours to the south unable to have the same basic civil right to marriage that all of us here in Canada have. The New York State Assembly passed a bill on 12 May 2009 to legalize same-sex marriage, and now it faces an uncertain future in the Senate. As Empire State Pride Agenda Executive Director Alan Van Capelle stated in a recent press release:
"The only remaining barrier to ending second-class status for gay and lesbian families in New York is now the State Senate. To every single member of the State Senate I say this: The landscape has shifted in New York. Do you want to be on the right side or the wrong side of history when the story is written about how marriage equality came to New York? Your grandchildren will want to know how you voted on this important human rights issue. This is a legacy vote."
