Connecticut leaders are working on gaining full marriage equality. Yesterday the legislature’s Judiciary Committee held a public hearing on HB 7395, An Act Concerning Marriage Equality. The hearing lasted nearly 12 hours!

There was powerful testimony from a broad range of supporters including Anna Heller, adult daughter of a lesbian mom who was one of the founders of COLAGE.

The arguments in support of marriage equality clearly won the day. But public testimony is not enough.

The Judiciary Committee will vote soon. Legislators need to hear from their constituents. Please take a minute now to help move this bill to the full House of Representatives for debate. Visit the website for Love Makes a Family to easily send an email to your officials in support of the bill.
