  <blurb>&lt;p&gt;With the Proposition 8 campaign airing a series of dishonest and misleading ads trying to scare voters into eliminating the fundamental rights of same-sex couples to marry in California, &lt;b&gt;we urgently need to help the &amp;quot;No on Prop 8/Equality for All&amp;quot; campaign fight back.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &amp;quot;Yes on 8&amp;quot;  campaign is attempting to raise $2 million in the next few days from its supporters. Two prominent leaders were quoted in the New York Times calling this battle the &amp;quot;Armageddon of the culture war&amp;quot; and the &amp;quot;decisive last stand&amp;quot; against marriage equality in America. We need your help to counter their campaign to write discrimination into the California constitution.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Please contribute to Equality for All, the official &amp;quot;NO on Prop 8&amp;quot; campaign, to help the campaign get out the message that Prop 8 is unfair, unnecessary and wrong.&lt;/b&gt; Please also consider contributing to the Courage Campaign Issues Committee, a California-based progressive online organizing network empowering over 100,000 grassroots and netroots activists to defeat Prop 8 and make California a more progressive state.&lt;/p&gt;</blurb>
