There will be a “Day of the Decision” Rally on the Thursday the Supreme Court rules on the DOMA case.
The most important LGBT Court Decision of our generation, affecting our equal access to marriage and all of its benefits and burdens will be made sometime soon. The Washington State Supreme Court will decide a case that will affect the rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender people to marry. Whether or not it decides to overturn Washington State’s “Defense of Marriage Act” (DOMA)… We are calling on all who support LGBT people’s right to marry to a comunity gathering to either… a PROTEST or a CELEBRATION held at Seattle 1st Baptist Church, 1111 Harvard Ave. at 5:30 pm on the evening of the State Supreme Court’s decision.
Supreme Court decisions are handed down on Thursdays, but announced on Wednesdays. This will give us only 24 hours to spread the word when notice of the decision is announced. Whatever that decision is, we call on all fair-minded Seattle area individuals and organizations to commit to quickly spread the word and to join together by attending this action.
