A Valentine’s Day Poem in Support of All of New York’s Families

Republicans are red,
Democrats are blue,
But love transcends political parties,
We know this is true.

So on this Valentine’s Day,
Tell the state we don’t care who’s straight or gay.
It’s time for the Senate to finally act,
To allow all of New York’s couples to enter the marriage pact.

Marriage fairness is about love,
Family, and children, too.
It’s about dignity and equality,
And discrimination we must undo.

So send a quick note to the reps of our state,
And tell them everyone should be able to marry their soul mate.
The Senate must correct its archaic world view,
For fair marriage laws are long over-due.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Wishing you a wonderful Valentine’s Day,
From the NYCLU!

Send a fax to the Senate today urging them to support fair marriage laws. And if you want to go the distance, send us a handwritten letter with a picture of your family telling us why you believe that all New Yorkers deserve the freedom to marry, which we will forward to your senator.

Send handwritten letters to: Marriage Fairness Campaign, NYCLU , 125 Broad Street, 19th floor, New York, NY 10004.

Thanks for taking action in support of all of New York’s families… And please forward this to your friends!

As bold as the spirit of New York, we are the NYCLU.
