It's Time to Let California Ring


You meet someone special. You fall in love and vow to spend your lives together. Maybe you want to get married. Yet every day, lesbian and gay people in California are denied the freedom to marry the person they love.

Like many Californians, you want a fair chance to realize your hopes and dreams and you want that for your family friends and neighbors. You probably believe that everyone should be treated fairly and not singled out for exclusion. The Let California Ring campaign is about engaging people like you to talk to other people you know. It's that simple. These conversations-millions of them-will open hearts and minds and build the public support we need to end exclusion of gay and lesbian couples from marriage.

So, welcome to our campaign website, where you can get engaged in Let California Ring. Learn how to have the conversation with people you know about the freedom to marry. Learn more about the campaign and our coalition partners and supporters, check out events happening in your neck of the woods and read stories from real people who talk about why the freedom to marry is important to them - and all of us.

Together we can engage millions of Californians in conversation through Let California Ring to help make our country, and the lives of many lesbian and gay couples and their loved ones, better. The campaign is that big. It's that important. And it starts with you
