Earlier this month, the Washington State PFLAG Council organized several community members to make the following videos to send a strong message to voters in Washington State. They each feature an out LGBTQ person, and display the many people who support them and will vote in favor of marriage equality.
You can view the videos here, and here.
According to Northwest PFLAG Regional Director Kathy Reim, “We are now depending on you to pass along the word that we love our families and will be voting, sign the pledge cards with Washington United for Marriage, the coalition that is working for marriage equality, and have the conversations as to why you care about this. If you are a straight ally, your voice is critical in all of this to move the 20 percent who do not know it is important and to shelter all the people we love whom the opposition will try to denigrate.”
