Yes on SJR 33 for Equal Rights for All!

Act Now

In Oregon, we believe that everyone should have the freedom to be who we are, marry who we love, and pursue our dreams. As a state, we've worked for decades to protect our rights and freedoms so that each of us can make deeply personal decisions about our bodies, lives, and futures.

But the reality is that we're facing a moment when extremists across the country are moving aggressively to insert themselves into the most personal decisions we can make. At a time when we can no longer count on the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold our long-held federal constitutional protections, we are seeing relentless attacks on our fundamental rights and freedoms – including our ability to choose and access essential healthcare and marry who we love. These coordinated attacks are happening in Oregon and nationwide.

With this constitutional amendment, Oregonians have the opportunity to vote our values into our state constitution and protect decades of hard-won rights and freedoms. Simply put, this amendment will make it clear in the Oregon constitution that each of us has the rights and freedoms to make deeply personal decisions about abortion and reproductive health care, gender identity and related health care, and marriage, free from undue political interference and discriminatory actions by the government.

I am an ACLU of Oregon supporter writing to urge you to support the Equal Rights for All ballot measure referral.

Oregon has led the country with laws that promote democracy and protect our rights and freedoms. We can be a beacon of hope across our country. We can continue to lead by enshrining our rights and freedoms to abortion and reproductive health care, gender identity and related health care, and marriage equality into the Oregon Constitution via the Equal Rights for All ballot measure.

This is also an opportunity for Oregon to update our constitution to reflect our values - that we have the right and freedom to marry who we love by - removing Oregon's ban on same-gender marriage that was inserted into our constitution nearly two decades ago.

This ballot measure also provides Oregon the opportunity to double down on our core value of equality in our constitution. There is no place in our state for government actions that discriminate due to our sex, gender, gender identity, and sexual orientation - whether in employment, housing, state services, or health care.

Oregonians overwhelmingly support our fundamental rights and freedoms to control our own bodies, lives, and futures without undue political interference and discriminatory government actions. And the polling is clear: Oregon voters understand that our rights are under relentless assault and support these constitutional safeguards that will protect us and the people we love from further attacks. Please vote Yes on SJR 33 for Equal Rights for All. Oregon voters deserve to have our voices heard.

Sincerely,

[First Name] [Last Name]
