Prop 8 is a CA constitutional amendement that was put into effect in 2008, and which states “Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California”. Wikipedia has a lot of information on this issue, including campaigns run by proponents and opponents of the proposition.
The Courage Campaign describes themselves as “…a multi-issue advocacy organization in the progressive movement.”, and they’ve been behind a lot of large internet campaigns that speak out California’s Prop 8. The Courage Campaign is currently seeking to have televised the lawsuit of Perry v. Schwarzenegger, which is challenging the validity of Proposition 8. From the Courage Campaign website:
Chief Judge Vaughn Walker is holding a hearing on whether a pool television camera should be allowed to film the federal Prop 8 trial, given the unprecedented interest in the proceedings. Judge Walker is encouraging the public to submit comments on the issue by Friday. Join the Courage Campaign Institute and CREDO Action and sign this letter to Judge Walker and we’ll hand-deliver your signatures. DEADLINE: Friday 9 AM.
You can visit this link if you want to sign the petition and leave Judge Walker a personal note.
