Marriage Equality Repeal DEFEATED in New Hampshire

Marriage Equality USA Volunteers staffed over 50 phone banks;
Called over 10,000 residents

Today was a great day!

By a vote of 211 to 116, the New Hampshire state Assembly DEFEATED a
bill that would have repealed marriage equality in the Granite State.

A huge thank you to all of our volunteers and supporters!  Whether you
donated $25 to fund our efforts or staffed one of our four weekly
phone banks, it is because of you that we have achieved this victory.

In addition, none our success is ever achieved alone and so we give
huge congratulations to the work of all our partners in the Standing
Up for New Hampshire Families Coalition - we are excited to have been
able to work together on this.

While we congratulate and celebrate today, Marriage Equality continues
to gear up for the upcoming fights across the country.  We will
continue to reach out to engage in states from coast to coast where
our opponents are trying to pass legislation, ballot measures and
constitutional amendments to deny our families the equal protection
they deserve.

With your support we will continue successes like this and I thank you
in advance for your commitment today to help our nationwide efforts.

Let's keep the momentum growing and celebrate with our friends and
family in New Hampshire!

In Solidarity,

Brian Silva

Executive Director
