John McCain: Doing whatever it takes to stop marriage equality

This week, when John McCain wants to sell himself as a moderate, can you take a moment to ask him why he's marching in lockstep with the radical right?

  • He has publicly embraced the hateful California marriage initiative that would deny marriage rights to committed same-sex couples.
  • In 2006, he appeared in this TV ad for a similar measure in Arizona.
  • He doesn't believe GLBT couples should
    be able to adopt children.

Sign the petition below and tell Sen. McCain to stop supporting discriminatory anti-GLBT measures.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST EQUALITY?

Dear Sen. McCain,

In California, Arizona and around the country, committed same-sex couples want nothing more than the legal recognition of their relationships that heterosexual couples enjoy.

You have built a political image as a "maverick" willing to cut against the partisan grain. Why then are you siding with the most radical agents of intolerance on the issue of marriage rights?

There is nothing "pro-family" about telling two adults in a committed relationship that their commitment has less value than that of other couples. There is nothing "pro-family" about stigmatizing and marginalizing loving families. The California ballot initiative would not strengthen the institution of marriage; it would weaken it.

I am surprised that you are embracing blatantly discriminatory measures and supporting these divisive and cynical ploys. Please stop supporting these anti-GLBT amendments.
