Friday, August 26 - Pass Marriage Equality / Meet Two Illinois Supreme Court Candidates 8/30

Actions You Can Take Today

Action 1: Tell Senators to Pass Marriage Equality Bill

Following the Dobbs decision, same-sex marriage is now on the chopping block for the Republican Supreme Court. We cannot allow the MAGA-led rollback of our rights to continue -- not while our senators have the power to intervene. Voting against these bills would be wildly unpopular and put these politicians’ careers in jeopardy (which is why we saw some House Republicans vote with Democrats on these bills).

Let our Senators know you want them to pass the Respect for Marriage Act immediately. We can’t afford to wait while our fundamental rights are being stripped before our very eyes, like with abortion rights.

Action 2: Meet Two Illinois Supreme Court Candidates on 8/30

Reproductive freedom in Illinois has not been at such great risk since the pre-Roe days, and if we lose just one of the Illinois Supreme Court seats we will lose our pro-choice majority. Given this bleak reality, we’re co-hosting Jane’s Army upcoming event to help ensure that pro-choice voters turn out this election. 

Tune in to hear from two candidates for the IL Supreme Court - Judge Mary Kay O’Brien & Judge Elizabeth Rochford - and organizers from Jane’s Army to learn more about what the stakes are this November, why we need to elect these two progressive candidates, and how you can plug into the work!
