In 2008 Floridians will vote on a state constitutional amendment that could strip away legal protections, health care and employee benefits thousands of Florida families count on every day and that would permanently ban same sex marriages and civil unions.  

Fairness for All Families is the coalition fighting this amendment.  And you can help by hosting or attending a house party fundraiser.  Follow the link below for more information:
