ONCE AND FOR ALL: What’s next for marriage equality in California?

A Community and Strategy Forum
Wednesday, June 10, 7:00 - 9:00 PM
Acqua Hotel
555 Redwood Highway

In the wake of the California State Supreme Court's decision to uphold Proposition 8 while letting 18,000 same-sex marriages remain valid, the marriage equality movement is at a crossroads in California.

This forum will provide information about new statewide organizing efforts to win marriage equality back; how the initiative process works for and against that effort; and next steps everyone can take to secure marriage equality in California - once and FOR ALL.
