You need to vote YES on Referendum. 71.
What is Referendum 71? It is a question to voters: Should gay couples be allowed to keep the rights that they already have in Washington state?
I can’t believe this is even a question.
Coupled straight people: Imagine the citizens of Washington state voting on whether or not you should be allowed to visit your spouse in the hospital without harassment.
Fathers: Imagine having to adopt your own child.
Iowa is looking really good right about now. Or sundry states on the Eastern Seaboard. Or Canada. Or Europe.

What a stupid, stupid, stupid question.
Is there any other group of people whose rights are routinely taken away?
