Tell Mormon Church President-Prophet to stop funding Prop 8
From Courage Campaign:
Fight back against the lies and protect the fundamental rights of Californians
Leaders of the campaign to outlaw same-sex marriage in California made an offer to businesses that have given money to the state's largest gay-rights group: 'Give us money or we'll publicly identify you as opponents of traditional unions.'" -- Lisa Leff, Associated Press, October 23
This is extortion!
It's time for people to fight back against the dishonest attacks of the pro-Proposition 8 campaign funded by the Mormon Church. On Tuesday, we will deliver a letter to President-Prophet Thomas Monson at the Los Angeles Mormon Temple, demanding that his church stop funding the blatant lies of the Proposition 8 campaign that seeks to codify religious, hateful, discriminatory anti-gay doctrine into state law.
ProtectMarriage, the organization leading the anti-marriage-equality campaign -- is now embroiled in a shocking new scandal involving a blackmail letter to California businesses that donated to Equality for All, the organization leading the "No on 8" campaign. Mark Jansson, opposition leader and self-described member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was one of four signers to this blackmail letter. This episode is yet another example of intimidation by the Mormon Church to pass Prop 8 and dictate public policy to Californians.
We need to stop the Mormon Church from pushing their marriage views on Californians through the ballot box and stop the extortion. Please sign our letter now to President-Prophet Thomas Monson demanding that his church cease funding the Mormon's un-American campaign
