URGENT PLEASE ACT!
Starting at 9:30 am TODAY, Thursday, April 23, 2009, we ask each of you, no matter where in New Jersey you live, to call the 3 legislators listed below to tell their offices: “Today, Quinnipiac came out with a poll showing New Jersey favors marriage equality. The Senator needs to support the bill strongly. If New Jersey is for it and it’s the correct thing to do, what’s the problem?” It can be in your own words, but make sure you mention it’s a Quinnipiac Poll (pronounced Quinn-uh-PEE-ack), a highly respected independent poll. You may hear, “you’re not in the Senator’s district” or “the bill won’t come up until later this year, so why are you calling now?” Please stick with it. We recently had a legislator ask us, has there been an independent poll in your favor?

Senate Majority Leader Steve Sweeney at (856) 251-9801
