CA: Join the Largest Signature Gathering Event of the Prop 8 Repeal Campaign Tomorrow

Feb. 6th is the Day of Action for the repeal of Prop 8! Equality supporters from all over the state will be out collecting signatures to reverse 2008's divisive ballot measure. RE2010's goal is to collect 100,000 signatures in just one day. The bigger the number of volunteers, and the bigger the number of volunteers those volunteers invite to the event, the more easily that goal will be met!
