Dear Marriage Supporter,

This year is going to be BIG!

We've been working over the holiday break to formulate our national strategy for 2013.

We're putting the finishing touches on our plans right now, and I'm excited about sharing some major new initiatives with you in the coming weeks...so be on the look out for those emails!

By the time you read this, I'll be on a plane to help with one of these major initiatives—you'll be hearing about that in a few short days.

But in the mean time, would you please consider making a donation to NOM of $25, $50, $100, $500 or more to help us fund the launch of these game-changing, outside-of-the-box initiatives?

Already this year we've scored a major victory by defeating a same-sex marriage bill during the Illinois legislature lame duck session—a push that was once again heralded as "inevitable" by same-sex marriage advocates and the media...a bill that had political pressure brought to bear by Rahm Emanuel and Barack Obama!

Make no mistake: we still have a long way to go to stop same-sex marriage from coming to IL, but what a way to start the year!

Please make a donation right away to NOM to help us launch these major new 2013 initiatives.

I look forward to sharing this exciting news with you in the days and weeks to come.
