Stop Hate Crimes Now!
Read the following open letter from Senator Barbara Boxer. Then, sign the petition!
Senator Boxer's urgent message:
Just before midnight Thursday, the Senate finally passed the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act as an amendment to the defense authorization bill. This legislation is long overdue, and now we're finally on the verge of getting it signed into law.
But we know our right-wing opponents are going to launch a last-ditch effort to try to stop us. So we can't stop fighting until the bill is sent to President Obama's desk for his signature. Please stand with me and show your support, right now -- so I can share your support with my colleagues on Capitol Hill.
Thank you,
