Thank President Obama for opposing Prop. 8 at the Supreme Court

The Obama administration has filed a historic court brief arguing that California's Proposition 8 violates the U.S. Constitution.
This is a historic step forward in the civil rights battle of our generation – and shows yet again that having the most pro-equality president in history is a game-changer.
So thank President Obama today – for his bold leadership, for putting the words of his inspirational inaugural address into action, and for opposing marriage discrimination.

Letter:

Thank you, Mr. President
Dear President Obama, 
I'm writing to thank you for the Justice Department's filing of an amicus curiae brief urging the Supreme Court to strike down Proposition 8.

I thank you for turning the inspirational words of your second inaugural address into concrete action by calling on our nation's highest court to put an end to a law discriminating against loving, committed gay and lesbian couples and their families.

It's enormously gratifying to know that, as of today, the U.S. Government stands with us against Proposition 8.

I'm proud to call you my president.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]

Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
