The same-sex marriage bill in Illinois, named “Marriage Fairness Act,” was approved by the Senate and is headed to the House of Representatives to be voted on soon.

Please call your representative in the House right now to stop gay marriage in Illinois. Please contact this website, http://prolifeaction.org/t/ilpols, to get your representative’s phone number.

Numbers matter. More than 4,000 people went to Springfield to lobby our legislators, and this made a huge difference. The vote will be close, and we need you to help make these calls. Please call now.
