Help us show that Iowans support fairness and equality by using the attached script to let your family/friends know about the rally nearest you!
In less than 24 hours, the Iowa Supreme Court will decide whether committed gay and lesbian couples will win the freedom to marry in Iowa! I know you are a supporter of marriage equality and I need two things from you right now! First, pledge to attend your local rally! We're hopeful to gather tomorrow evening in celebration of a historic ruling that will ensure that all Iowa families are treated fairly. Win, lose, or draw, our community and allies must come together to share in this historic moment and prepare for what lies ahead. Can we count on you to be there? Second, I need you hit forward on this email and ask EVERYONE in your contact list to join you in making history! With so little time to prepare, we need YOU to spread the word quickly, so pick up your phone, send out a mass text, or donate your facebook status or tweet for the cause! Here's a simple text message you can use: "Iowa Supreme Court rules on same-sex marriage FRIDAY. Find rally locations at oneiowa.org and help me make history!" Rally times and locations will be posted online later today and we'll follow up with an email. Please check back for more details! This is your moment Iowa! Let's stand as ONE! - Carolyn Jenison Executive Director, One Iowa PS: For Des Moines supporters, please join us in our office at 500 E. Locust anytime from 5-10 PM to help prepare rally signs.
