    Video NOM doesn't want you to see



     
    Courage Campaign

    "I'm not really so different from any of your children. My family really isn't so different from yours. So what your voting here isn't to change us. It's not to change our families. It's to change how the law views us, how the law treats us." -Zach Wahls

    NOM doesn't want you to see this video.
     
    Right now NOM, the so-called National Organization for Marriage, a right-wing extremist group that spent millions to pass Prop 8, are gathering their forces in Iowa in an effort to take civil-unions away from same-sex couples.
     
    They seek to use fear tactics and lies to mislead Iowans about our families, and we can't let them get away with it. We must share our stories to defend equality.
     
    And that's exactly what Zach Wahls, a 19-year-old University of Iowa student, did.
     
     
     
     
    By telling our stories, we can change hearts and minds.
     
    That's why the Courage team is hard at work gearing up to launch the next phase of our Testimony website, to make sure stories like Zach's are told all across America. And that's why it's so important that you help us share Zach's story now.
     
    We know that when we tell our stories, we win.
     
     
    Together we can,
