Let DC have a REAL vote (for a change)
In 2010, Wyoming had a population of 563,626.
During the same time, Washington DC had a population of 617,996.
Wyoming enjoys all the rights and liberties of a state. Washington DC does not.
Get it? Nah, neither do I.
I don't give a flying fart whether Washington DC residents are mostly Democratic, Republican, Green, independent, A Connecticut Party...whatever. They have the right to choose what any other American chooses. Period. Get this done. Now.

A few things to remember; as I said before, the House of Representatives has an election every two years, and they had one this past Tuesday. If your representative's mark "www.smith.gov" has a hash mark(#) next to it, it probably means that he/she is serving his last term. However, until she/he gives up the seat formally (usually the first week in January) she/he continues the seat in November and December. Therefore, it's considered proper etiquette to address the current member, not the future one.
In brief: Let all LGBT people have the same rights as heterosexual people do, and let them be universal.
Mountain View, California - Anna Eshoo (D) - CA14
Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania - Mike Doyle (D) - PA14
Framingham, Massachusetts - Ed Markey (D) - MA7
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - Robert Brady (D) - PA1
Fargo, North Dakota - Rick Berg (R) - ND/AL
Washington, District of Columbia - Eleanor Holmes Norton (D) - DC/AL*
Syracuse, New York - Ann Marie Buerkle (D) - NY25
Terre Haute, Indiana - Larry Buchson (D)
Denver, Colorado - Diane DeGette (D) - CO1
Monroe Township, New Jersey - Rush Holt (D) - NJ12
The representatives are samples; to find yours, go to www.house.gov and enter it where it says "ZIP codes".

The House of Reps changes...
Every two years, the House of Representatives must face re-election. This will be done in less than a week, on Election Day. Please remember to vote for these as well!
01 November 2012
Let 'em have it - by e-mail!
I'm one of the lucky few - I live in the Northeast. Many of those who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender aren't so fortunate. This isn't a matter of "conservative" or "liberal" - it's a matter of basic human rights. The right to marry. The right to hold hands. The right to comfort each other. The right to visit the other partner in the hospital. The right to say a final farewell in the cemetery.
Y'know, little stuff like that.
Tell your representative that you want these rights to be universal and irrevocable. PERIOD.
Detroit, Michigan - Hansen Clarke (D) - MI13
Houston, Texas - Sheila Jackson-Lee (D) - TX18
Bentonville, Arkansas - Steve Womack (R) - AR3
San Francisco, California - Nancy Pelosi (D) - CA8
Evergreen Hills, Illinois - Bobby Rush (R) - IL1
Wellston, Ohio - Bob Gibbs (R) - OH10
Sunnyvale, California - Anna G. Eshoo (D) - CA14
Largo, Florida- C.W. Bill Young (R) - FL10
Bellbrook, Ohio - Steve Austria (R) - OH7
Duluth, Minnesota - Chip Cravaak (R) - MN8
The preceding were samples. To find out which representative is yours, go to www.house.gov and enter your ZIP code. If you are near a border, or live in a heavily crowded area, you may need to provide additional information.
