Allow same sex marriages in the State of Illinois

Legislation to permit same sex marriages is pending in the State legislature. All individuals must have the same right to marry. Pass this important legislation and Governor Ryan must sign it.

Why is this important?

Many citizens in the State of Illinois are unable to marry their partners only because they are of the same sex. Such a policy violates equal protection of the law because there is no rational basis or compelling reason for such a restriction. All people must have the same right to marry.
