Grayson’s the politician that’s been on the news lately giving the republicain a sore head. Good to know he’s signed up for UAFA. I wish we had more dems like him that aren’t scared of the right.

Folks…FYI the NY state senate may vote on same-sex marriage tomorrow, so if you are from NY, call your state senator and let him know you want him/her to vote for the bill. If not from NY state, call, email your friends and family who are from NY state. Thanks.

The grassroots Letter Writing/E-mailing/Faxing/Phone calling weekly effort focused on Congressman Grayson three weeks ago, and our efforts paid off! Please join us! We need many more people to help.

Folks, if you know anyone in NY state, pls inform them that a call to their senator may make the difference:

The NY senate is slated to vote today and many are undecided. If it passes, the gov will sign it. Once law, it can’t be repealed, since NY state does not allow referendums the way that Maine and Calif does, so pls act NOW!!

By my calculation, 44 days and the HIV ban becomes a bad memory!!

Let’s be thankful tomorrow, World AIDS Day, that we have finally relegated the HIV Ban to history.
