Greg Hinz on the manufactured effort to create momentum for gay marriage in Illinois failing:

"On gay marriage: Despite lots of brave talk and another plug last night by President Barack Obama, the bill to allow same-sex marriage in Illinois reportedly is short two or three votes, with stiff opposition among many African-American lawmakers." (Craig's Chicago Business On Politics blog)

Please keep up the pressure with your calls!

And if you live near Springfield, please come right away to an urgent rally to defend marriage at the Illinois State Capitol Rotunda. Our supporters and allies are gathering there at 10AM and will be there throughout the day. Thank you!
