VICTORY OVER PROP 8!

Judge Vaughn Walker issued his ruling in the federal Prop 8 case today. Proposition 8 was declared UNCONSTITUTIONAL, and in celebration we will rally in Daley Plaza at 6pm. This is a federal opinion on same-sex marriage, and will be highly influential in all future federal considerations of LGBTQ rights. Today is a direct continuation of the original protests against Prop 8 in 2008 and the Day of Decision rallies in 2009, now is the time. We must keep up the momentum!

Join the Impact Chicago is a politically independent organization of Chicago-based grassroots activists fighting for full equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) people in all matters governed by civil law in all 50 states. Through education, community organizing, and direct action, JTIC is working to eliminate federal, state, and local laws that codify discrimination on the basis of gender expression and sexuality. We will not settle for compromises or half-measures, and will not rest until we are recognized as fully equal.
