Take Action NOW!
A state constitutional amendment banning marriage for same-sex couples was introduced in the Texas legislature November 8, 2004.

On November 22, 2004, a second state constitutional amendment was introduced, with language even harsher than the first.

The Anti-Gay Texas Marriage Amendment hurts Texas families. It would permanently write unequal treatment for gay and lesbian Texans into our Constitution.

BREAKING ALERT! In a sneak attack on the LGBT community, the Texas Senate Committee on State Affairs scheduled a last-minute public hearing on HJR 6 for Monday, May 16 at 8:30am.

Contact the Senate! Now that HJR 6 has passed the Texas House of Representatives, our Texas Senators have to power to halt this discriminatory amendment.

1. Geez!
They have so many more important things to worry about. What are these freaks afraid of? :eyes: Are gays going to make me divorce my wife? This legislation is a waste of time.

2. Done
Here's my note.

Why is the Texas Lege wasting their time on this? Answer: You are pandering to the Christian Talibornagains instead of taking care of our schools and our infrastructure.

I'm tired of being represented by a bunch of Nosey Parkers who have nothing better to do than legislate cheerleaders and worry about what people do in their bedrooms instead of running the business of our state.

Get a life. ALL of you.
