|
====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== February 16, 2006 Dear HSLDA members and friends: In order to place a marriage amendment on the ballot for the 2008 elections, the Florida Coalition to Protect Marriage needs another 155,000 signatures to make the goal of 611,009 petitions. Brenda Dickinson of the Home Education Foundation has worked tirelessly to help gather thousands of signatures. Your right to homeschool rests on another freedom: the freedom to direct the education and upbringing of your children. Your parental rights, in turn are supported by the sanctity of marriage. Anything that undermines marriage may ultimately undermine parental rights. Amending the Florida constitution will protect the concept of marriage from activist state judges. Without this amendment, an activist judge out of step with the citizens will one day redefine marriage for us and allow same sex marriages. The full text of the amendment is: Be it enacted by the people of Florida that: A new section for Article I is hereby created to add the following: Inasmuch as marriage is the legal union of only one man and one woman as husband and wife, no other legal union that is treated as marriage or the substantial equivalent thereof shall be valid or recognized. ACTION REQUESTED: Take a moment now and download and sign the petition from this website: http://www.florida4marriage.org/, or call (407) 251-1957 to request the petition. Thank you in advance for your commitment to the protection of marriage in Florida. Sincerely, Chris Klicka HSLDA Senior Counsel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -> There may be no such thing as a free lunch... ...but there is a way to get a free membership!
