Doug PollardThe 3 Most Important things you can do for Marriage - UPDATE
July 29th 2009 02:08
First , tell the Senate you support marriage equality
The deadline to make a submission to the enquiry has now been extended to August 28th. Submissions can be as long or as short as you wish so long as you say why you support same sex marriage.
Here's how Really Long Link - you can either write your own submission or just sign the Australian Marriage Equality submission.
Second, come along to your local rally for marriage equality on August 1st. There's a motion supporting equal marriage before the Labor Party conference, so politicians will be watching the numbers closely. If you stay away they will think you support the existing ban on equal marriage.
Third, the Australian Christian Lobby are mounting a major offensive to block discussion of marriage equality at the Labor conference.
