Help Stop SSM in Rhode Island!

Today, the Rhode Island House Judiciary Committee is holding a joint hearing to consider four bills, including one which would redefine marriage to include same-sex couples in Rhode Island. Two more bills would create divorce proceedings for same-sex couples married in Massachusetts -- even though the Rhode Island Supreme Court has already ruled those marriages are not recognized in Rhode Island law.
We need your help to send a message to the members of the Judiciary Committee: "Get back to work; don't mess with marriage." Together we can make a difference. With just a few clicks of the mouse, you can edit and send an e-mail to all 16 committee members. Click here to get started. 

NOM Rhode Island Launches Radio Ad Campaign: "Don't Mess with Marriage.

Today, the National Organization for Marriage announced a new ad campaign opposing same-sex marriage litigation pending in the state legislature. As explained by NOM President Maggie Gallagher, "NOM's radio campaign aims to make sure all Rhode Islanders are aware that the legislature is seriously considering gay marriage. The theme of the radio campaign is 'Don't mess with marriage, get back to the people's business.'. Promoting same-sex marriage is not high on the list of Rhode Islanders' priorities in a time of budget cuts, overspending, economic distress, health care concerns, and serious disagreement over immigration." 

Support NOM Rhode Island!

As we launch a long-term campaign to stop gay marriage in Rhode Island, we need the support of friends from all across the state who will stand with us, joining in our effort to reach and persuade co-workers, neighbors, and legislators of the importance of marriage. Can you give $10, $25, or $50 today? Each radio ad costs $400 to air, but has the potential to reach thousands of our fellow Rhode Islanders, and generate hundreds of phone calls and e-mails to the statehouse.
