Gay Fresno is proud to join with Marriage Equality USA (MEUSA) and 50 local and national partners in the Campaign for 20 Million More – a growing coalition working to win the freedom to marry and to defeat anti-equality ballot initiatives in Election 2012.
“The Campaign for 20 Million More is a powerful example of what is best about our community and allies when we all work together towards big goals. I am so thankful to our almost 50 local and national partners for their contributions, and to the many MEUSA volunteers and staff for their work in managing this initiative,” said Brian Silva, MEUSA Executive Director.
“Over 20 million Americans will be affected by elections directly involving marriage equality in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota and Washington,” added Stuart Gaffney, MEUSA Media Director. “Polls nationwide are showing majority support for equal marriage rights, and the Campaign for 20 Million More is now harnessing that tremendous grassroots support in order to win the freedom to marry.”
