For me, equality is a bedrock value, and that’s why I’m voting against Prop. 8. I believe equality for all is the best guide we have in our nation’s long struggle to fulfill its promise. As soon as I hear someone say that someone else doesn’t deserve the same treatment and rights that everyone else enjoys, alarm bells go off.
”I’m a person of faith, and my faith is based on love. Some religious folks are saying to vote yes on 8 for religious reasons, but I believe that God loves all of his children equally and wants us to do the same.
”Whatever your beliefs are, keep them – but don’t use them as your excuse to take away another person’s rights and stand in the way of their equality. Linda Dent, SEIU Local 721 member
