National Equality March

Supporters of equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans from every race, class, faith and community are mobilizing for a National Equality March on October 11, 2009, in Washington, D.C. The single demand of the march is clear: “Equal protection in all matters governed by civil law in all 50 states."  We will accept no less and will work until it is achieved. 

The march is being organized by Equality Across America, a grassroots network dedicated to organizing in all 435 Congressional Districts to achieve full equality. There will be multiple events planned throughout the weekend and we hope that you will visit our website to learn more, http://www.nationalequalitymarch.com

Right now we have one bus with 54 seats available going down on the evening of October 10th and coming back the evening of the 11th.  Tickets are $40.  Please get in touch with Jim Ramey if you want to go, want to sponsor someone to go or can give a donation to offset costs. Vermont Contingent Leaves from in front of Ira Allen Chapel on the UVM Campus 11pm the evening of October 10th. The bus will be departing Washington DC at 7:30 pm on October 11th.
