National Organization for Marriage launches email campaign targeting key Iowa House members

The National Organization for Marriage is pressuring the following Iowa House Democrats to advance a repeal and ban of same sex marriage and civil unions in Iowa:

(District precedes name of representative.)

13: Steckman, Sharon (Democrat) - Representative, sharon.steckman@legis.state.ia.us
15: Quirk, Brian (Democrat) - Assistant Minority Leader, brian.quirk@legis.state.ia.us
22: Berry, Deborah (Democrat) - Representative, deborah.berry@legis.state.ia.us
24: Thomas, Roger (Democrat) - Representative, roger.thomas@legis.state.ia.us
28: Murphy, Patrick (Democrat) - Speaker of the House, pat.murphy@legis.state.ia.us
43: Smith, Mark (Democrat) - Representative, mark.smith@legis.state.ia.us
46: Heddens, Lisa (Democrat) - Representative, lisa.heddens@legis.state.ia.us
49: Miller, Helen (Democrat) - Representative, helen.miller@legis.state.ia.us
64: Petersen, Janet (Democrat) - Representative, janet.petersen@legis.state.ia.us
66: Abdul-Samad, Ako (Democrat) - House Assistant Majority Leader, ako.abdul-samad@legis.state.ia.us
67: McCarthy, Kevin (Democrat) - House Majority Leader, kevin.mccarthy@legis.state.ia.us
77: Mascher, Mary (Democrat) - Minority Whip, mary.mascher@legis.state.ia.us
81: Thede, Phyllis (Democrat) - Representative, phyllis.thede@legis.state.ia.us
94: Swaim, Kurt (Democrat) - Representative, kurt.swaim@legis.state.ia.us

If you live in Iowa (find your house district HERE) and any of the above members represent you, email them now to let them know you support the unanimous decision of the Iowa Supreme Court and that you want your representative to solve problems which affect all Iowans and not make thousands of Iowa's families strangers to the law.

Remember, NOM's efforts and those of the Iowa Mormon front group "Family Leader" would make not only marriage, but civil unions AND domestic partnerships unavailable to gay Iowans, details that the National Organization for Marriage doesn't bother to mention in its email alert.
