REPEALING DOMA:
  • would be a repudiation of the forces of hate and division who have long pushed to enshrine discrimination further in federal law.
  • would mean federal recognition of all marriages in states like Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont -- including the marriages of same-sex couples.
  • would stop the government from selectively withholding the 1,300 or so legal protections that only legal civil marriage affords.
  • would remove a discriminatory blemish from federal law, sending a powerful moral message.
Tell the President and Congress:
It's time to repeal DOMA.

It’s time for some real change we can believe in. It’s time for the federal government to stop punishing loving same-sex couples. It’s time to repeal DOMA (the Defense of Marriage Act).

President Obama said he supports the repeal, but now he's defending the law in court. Take action now to remind him that we voted for change, not more of the same. Take action now to make sure that President Obama and Congress eliminate DOMA.

Dear President Obama, Majority Leader Reid, and Speaker Pelosi:

It's time to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). At this moment of change and progress, it's time to undo a serious mistake made by Congress 13 years ago. The federal government has no business discriminating against loving families by selectively withholding the roughly 1,300 legal protections that only legal civil marriage affords.

It's time for the President to fulfill his promise to the American people to eliminate DOMA. And it's time for Congress to show leadership on this issue and send him long overdue legislation to repeal this relic of hatred.
