and back to politics, one more time... (New York Senate voting info)

A quick guide for New Yorkers wondering where their senator stands on Marriage Equality:

If your senator is "opposed" or unknown," call and let them know where you stand. If they're supporting, call and thank them, encourage them to keep up the fight.

I've already thanked Senator Espada, saying "to deny marriage equality is to embrace bigotry and fear -- two things New Yorkers should stand up and reject."

Thank you!

If you are in Betty Little's district, you know she has opposed same-sex marriage in the past.

I just called her office at (518) 455-2811 and talked to Kathy, who said the senator does not think the state should redefine marriage.

She also said they are keeping track of the number of calls they receive expressing an opinion.

wow, that's a cop-out on Little's part, innit? Redefining marriage would be saying "one man and one woman" the way the neconXtans want. This is merely ensuring parity under law.
