EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL AMERICANS
To my Senators and my Congressional Representative:
I believe in equal marriage rights, equal employment rights, and equal military rights for
all Americans. Therefore, I'm asking you to:
Repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) to provide equal marriage rights for same-sex couples.
Enact the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) to end workplace discrimination on the basis of gender orientation.
Repeal the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Act (DADT) to ensure equal rights for all Americans in military service.
I believe a majority of Americans are now ready to vote for equal rights instead of Catholic, Protestant, and Mormon bigotry. It's time to put an end to religious fascism that has stolen the Constitutional right of gay Americans to simply have their own private sex lives without being discriminated against. It's no longer a crime to be gay in your own bedroom. Therefore, continued religious discrimination is now both unconstitutional and un-American.

Please volunteer now and do your small share by downloading and printing out the petition. If you'll just get 20 signatures and email your friends, and they'll each just get 20 signatures and email their friends, etc., etc., our grass roots campaign could easily mushroom into a million petitions, each with 20 signatures!
All petition volunteers should first fax or snail mail their completed petition sheet(s) to the district offices of their Senators and Representative before mailing the petition sheet(s) to us. (click
here to find the Senators and Representative for your zip code) Throughout this petition drive, we'll also be delivering all petition sheets mailed us to the House and Senate offices in Washington, D.C. to keep the pressure up. (our plan is to bury the politicians in paper at both their district and D.C. offices)
If you'd like to volunteer as a community organizer, beyond just getting a petition sheet filled out, click
here to join our ERFAA National group. (you must register for free as a UFC member to join) You'll be added to the National group email list, and can also post or reply in the National group forum, as well as add comments.
Or click
here to contact us for more information about volunteering as a community organizer beyond just getting a petition sheet filled out. (no UFC membership necessary).
If you have the experience and contacts to take responsibility for coordinating activity throughout your city or state, click
here to send us an email with some information about your experience or organizational ties. You then can set up your own private group here at the Universal Free Church such as, for example, ERFAA Wisconsin or ERFAA Chicago. (having your own private group at UFC lets you communicate with and manage all your group members, as well as having your own private group forum)
If you have at least six months direct phone or field canvassing experience with any progressive organization, click
