I wanted to post the full fundraising pitch at the close of
the HRC reception Friday, April 27, 2012. Persons were urged not to leave a
rather full reception until they had donated to the Maryland and Washington
state initiative to defeat the (likely) referendums on same-sex marriage this
November. There were desktop computer
stations available.
I do all my donation at home online, and much of it goes
through a Trust. As a “journalist”, I
don’t get involved in “recruiting people” to contribute to anything. Because then I would have to do it for
everything. And I did have another “event”
in Georgetown to get to, nearby.
There are two relevant videos.
They emphasize the way the future
for real people can be affected by the outcome of the votes in November.
Closing Remarks:
Earlier (Chad Griffin):
Remember, North Carolina has a referendum Tuesday May 8 on a state constitutional amendment that, like Virginia's Marshall-Newman, would ban civil unions, but this would also extend to heterosexual civil unions. See this story in the Southern Pilot, link.
