Come to Minnesota's Freedom to Marry Day Rally

Come to Minnesota's Freedom to Marry Day Rally
Thursday, February 12th
2:30-3:30pm
Location: Rotunda of the State Capitol 75 Constitution Avenue Saint Paul, Minnesota

Come to the Capitol to show your support for ending discrimination against same-sex couples and their children.

Freedom to Marry Day celebrations began over a decade ago in Minnesota and across the country to encourage people to be vocal about their support for marriage equality. This year's celebration in Minnesota is a rally at the Capitol in support of the "Marriage and Family Protection Act", which would render all Minnesota statutes dealing with marriage gender neutral, allowing equal rights for same sex and same gender couples to marry in Minnesota.

As part of this week, OutFront Minnesota is encouraging Minnesotans to be vocal about their support for legal protections that bring stability to all families. Join us at the Capitol, write your legislators and talk with co-workers or family about why you support marriage equality.

Ideas for signs

Sponsors of this event include Join The Impact - Twin Cities, Marriage Equality Minnesota, OutFront Minnesota, Rainbow Families, MN Lavender Greens, Stonewall DFL, Green Party of Minnesota, and more on the way!

And don't forget to attend OutFront Minnesota's justFair Lobby Day on Thursday, April 23rd.
