On Wednesday, in a long-awaited and historic decision, Judge Vaughn Walker struck down Proposition 8, ruling that the Constitution protected the fundamental right of marriage for all couples in California.
When Judge Walker's ruling was announced, Barbara Boxer declared:
"This historic decision is a step forward in the march toward equal rights and reflects a growing legal consensus that marriage equality is protected by the U.S. Constitution."
But we know that there is so much more work to do to ensure equality.
Let Barbara know where you stand in this important fight.
Positive reactions to Wednesday's ruling have come from across the political spectrum.
Senator Feinstein called the decision "an enormous victory." Attorney General Jerry Brown called it "great news for California!" Governor Schwarzenegger supported Judge Walker's ruling too.
But not Barbara's opponent, Carly Fiorina. She opposes marriage equality and said she disagreed with the judge's ruling.
It's time to show Fiorina and our opponents where you stand.
Thank you for standing up, speaking out, and showing your support for marriage equality.
Sincerely,
Rose Kapolczynski
Campaign Manager
Boxer for Senate
