      <![CDATA[COLAGE Applauds Historic Connecticut Marriage Decision
October 10, 2008

We are thrilled to share with you this breaking news.  At 11:30am this morning, the Connecticut Supreme Court issued its ruling in Kerrigan v. Commissioner of Public Health, the equal marriage case and the news is great! Citing the equal protection clause of the state constitution, the justices ruled that civil unions were discriminatory and that the state's "understanding of marriage must yield to a more contemporary appreciation of the rights entitled to constitutional protection." 

COLAGE  applauds the efforts of <a href="http://www.glad.org">Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders (GLAD)</a> and <a href="http://www.lmfct.org/site/PageServer?pagename=home">Love Makes a Family </a>for their leadership in this case and on marriage equality in Connecticut.

Tonight there will be a rally celebrating this historic occasion at the Connecticut State House at 5:30 pm. For more information click <a href="http://www.lmfct.org/site/PageServer?pagename=Decision_Day_Rally/ ">here. </a>
We hope that our members and allies in Connecticut will attend. COLAGE also calls on our community, even in this time of celebration, to continue to fight for marriage equality, particular in California, Florida and Arizona where voters are deciding on ballot initiatives about marriage this November. 

For more information about COLAGE and our efforts to promote marriage equality, please contact Meredith Fenton, COLAGE Program Director at Meredith@colage.org or 415-861-5437.

      Hi Everyone in COLAGECT!

Part of the Denver Conference that I attended was setting up a Blog for COLAGECT.  Each one of the National COLAGE Chapters are going to have the ability to create a Blog for their chapters.  What a great idea this will be.

In here we can put information about what is going on with the chapter, things that are happening in the area, messages from each other, possible next meetings or events...etc...  This can also be a place to welcome new members, new people to the area, areas of interest for the community and even pictures from events.

Please let me know what you think, and ways in which we can best utilize this great new way of communicating.

Peace;

Becca
