Our voice is making a difference! Please read the following article from Iowa Family Policy Center: On Monday, the state's leading promoter of state sanctioned sodomy, One Iowa, sent a plea to their e-mail list asking for help in pushing back against your efforts to bring the Iowa Marriage Amendment to a vote. The call for help came from Speaker of the House, Pat Murphy.
In his message, Speaker Murphy said that his colleagues are being "bombarded with venomous messages." That's right: the Speaker of the Iowa House thinks that your calls, visits, and e-mails asking for a vote on the Iowa Marriage Amendment are "venomous." He goes on to say "Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal and I have pledged to oppose a constitutional amendment to define marriage between a man and a woman, and we will employ any means at our disposal" to keep the amendment from coming to the people of Iowa for a vote.
Speaker Murphy would not be making this plea for help if he was not hearing from his Democrat House members. They know that their political futures are being sacrificed on the One Iowa altar of homosexual activism to keep Iowans from exercising their constitutional rights. Your voice is being heard, and your efforts are making a difference. Continue to call, e-mail, and visit your Representative and Senator.
Also, be on the lookout for town hall meetings and legislative coffees where you can visit with lawmakers when they are home from Des Moines. Now is the time to once again call your state legislators (representative and senator) and let them know that you want the opportunity to vote on a Marriage Amendment. Encourage the Republicans to continue pressing for the vote, ask the Democrats why they continue to allow their leadership to block the Marriage Amendment from even coming to the floor for debate.
