WHY
WE NEED TO ACT NOW:
- Republicans want to pass
laws and amend the U. S. Constitution to deny marriage equality for
LGBT
citizens.
- Texas Lawmakers want to
give heterosexuals "preferred" status over LGBT parents in providing
foster care for children.
- President Bush has
appointed two Supreme Court Justices. Only our Democrats in the
Senate can protect our rights.
WHAT WE
HAVE ACCOMPLISHED:
- Stonewall Democrats of San
Antonio (SDSA) has made a difference in every recent election.
Every year the margin to victory narrows. Especially in tight
races, our efforts pay off.
- We have registered over
1,600 new LGBT voters over the past three years!
- We lobbied Texas State
Senators and Representatives in Austin to vote against anti-LGBT bills.
|
WHAT WE ARE DOING NOW:
- Educating candidates on
our issues.
- Educating voters about
candidate views via our endorsement process.
- Volunteering time for the
campaigns we support.
