David Mixner Gives Call to Action: Stop the gAyTM For All Democrats Not Supporting DOMA Repeal

Last month, Rep. Jerrold Nadler introduced the DOMA repeal legislation, the Respect for Marriage Act. Many House Democrats have jumped on board as co-sponsors, but sadly, not all, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and openly gay Barney Frank.

On his blog today, David Mixner lists all the co-sponsors and gives a call to action, stating "There is simply no reason why every Democrat is not on that list and also some of our Republicans allies. If you see your Congressperson's name missing below, get a group of your fellow activists and friends and go see them in person. Call. E-mail. Refuse to contribute to any Democrat that is not on this legislation to repeal DOMA."
