Vote NO on Prop8 - Keep Our Ad on TV
Sam and Julia Thoron's heartfelt message reaches out to the 20 percent of voters who are
still undecided about Prop 8. Make a donation today to keep the ad, and our message, on the
air as much as possible.

Beginning today, Californians will see Sam and Julia Thoron offer a heartfelt message about their daughter, Liz, whose right to marry the person she loves will be eliminated if Prop 8 passes. Sam and Julia signed the ballot argument that will go to all 20+ million voters in California -- they have given our cause a real and compelling voice.

Watch the ad -- and make a donation to keep it on the air.

Because of your generosity, we were able to launch our first ad before the opposition launched their first ad. Being first enables us to frame the debate, which our polling and focus groups have told us is vitally important to a victory on November 4.

Voters need to see, hear and talk about the true harm Prop 8 would have on same-sex couples and their families between now and the election.

But we can only keep it on the air if you make a donation today.

The Thorons' story not only speaks to all of us, but it also reaches out to the 20 percent of voters who still haven’t made up their minds about Prop 8.

Right now, the other side is out-raising us by a wide margin. Soon, their ads -- undoubtedly filled with lies and distortions about Prop 8, about us and about our families -- will be on the air. Our ads will tell the real story -- how real families will be affected if Prop 8 passes. Their ads won’t. We need to keep our messages on the air as much as we can.

You can help by donating NOW! And send an email to at least 5 friends and urge them to donate as well.

With your donation we can air the ad:

*
$50: In a small TV market in Spanish
*
$125: During "Heroes" in Palm Springs
*
$500: During "Dr. Phil" in San Diego
*
$1,000: During the presidential debate in Sacramento
*
$2,500: Twice during "The Daily Show" in San Francisco
*
$5,000: Twice during "The Daily Show" in Los Angeles

With an estimated 12 million Californians voting this year, the likely winner will be the side that effectively reaches the most voters using television advertising. We cannot lose the media battle.
