Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to take a moment to apologize for not posting anything for awhile. I have had a horrible flu for the past 2 weeks and am just now getting to the point where I can get back to business. Soon you will see more posts, updates, and the like.
Here’s some quick updates:
- Freedom to Marry Day was a HUGE success thanks to the amazing efforts of MEUSA!
- We gathered another few feet (stacked) of signature pages on the Open Letter to Obama!
- Willow Witte (the co-founder of JTI) is on a month-long visit to California. She’s meeting with leaders in the movement, attending some amazing events, and finding great partners for future JTI events!
- We are still working on what we want to lend our support to in March, which is a key month for the Prop 8 battle (We’ll keep you posted)
- Finally, there are a few great winners for our “Share Your Ideas” contest in which we asked our members to share their ideas for future events. We will be contacting the owners of those ideas soon and working with them to make each event a reality!
Thanks so much for your patience and your amazing emails wishing me a quick recovery!! You guys are amazing!!!!
-Amy

Hey I’m all for gay marriage. From what I’ve seen most queers are so ugly they couldn’t get a member of the opposite sex

Hope you feel better. I created a page the other day regarding Marriage Equality USA’s upcoming event about the “Prop 8″ California Supreme Court hearing. It is a candlelight vigil for marriage equality being hosted across the state. Hope everyone in California and across the nation who really supports marriage equality – friends, family, community – can be there in California (if not, in spirit!).

LOL are you kidding John? You’re just mad because you’re not pretty enough to get Portia de Rossi and too many straight women are comparing straight men to their gay male counterparts when sizing them up.

Amy,
glad to hear you a feeling better. i don’t want to sound like a downner, but if you had a severe flu that lasted a week or more, you may want to follow-up on this. For me, it meant I contracted hiv (seroconversion…which can be extreme flu-like syptoms that last a long time). I know in Calif. there is a flu-bug going around, so i seriously doubt that you contracted hiv. I just wanted to share my personal experience so in the unlikely event, it don’t come as a shocking surprise, (just take a mental note of who you’ve been with…if any).
In any case, I’m glad you are feeling better and would like to take the opportunity to say Thank You for all you have done for “Join the Impact” and wish I’ve could’ve done more.
