Below is a copy of the letter I recently sent to State Senator Bill Stachowski who is alledged to be casting a NO vote for the marriage equality bill in the Senate. If you care to write or call him here is his contact information:

It’s often stated that politicians are 10 years behind the issues that concern the voters they serve. Recent polls within the New York State show that 53% of the voting public are for marriage equality. When voters under the age of 30 are polled the percentage of support increases dramatically. It is widely believed that your vote on this topic will be cast as a no vote.

With almost all the New England states as well as Canada having passed important civil rights laws supporting marriage equality I feel it’s long over do that New York State steps up to the proverbial plate. Marriage Equality will happen in New York State eventually, why suppress the civil rights of the gay public any longer? The Democratic Party, your party, my party is supposed to be the party of civil rights.

I ask that you take a giant leap from paralyzing mediocrity to true leadership on an issue that requires the boldness of a Senate willing to progress civil rights for all New Yorkers. Lest I remind you that gay New Yorkers come in all forms including politicians, EMT’s, fire fighters, police officers, and even teachers. Denying civil rights to these important public servants as well as all the other gay New Yorkers is utterly outrageous in my opinion.

My guess is you entered the Senate to enact change and help progress democratic principles. Well Senator Stachowski, this is your chance, please don’t squander it on politics as usual!

Saturday night I went to Adonia's for my softball league's (Queen City Softball League) Beer Blast. Here's me, Chris, and Liz.

Kristen finally shows up.

Kristen works out the lip stick at Steel Crazy Cafe.

Me, Liz, and Chris move on to Crocodile Bar on Chippewa Street.

This is bad, I've got a hot dog vendor below my window! I'm doing good, I've only been there twice so far!
