Once again, thanks for all your efforts. You mention that 5 Councilmembers have signed onto your Resolution against amending the Minnesota Constitution to ban gay marriage. I am curious which two have not signed on? Dan Dobson Summit Hill - Saint Paul [EMAIL PROTECTED] ====================================================== Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2004 17:31:03 -0600 From: "Dave Thune" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [StPaul] Saint Paul Resolution Introduced To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The following resolution, with 5 Councilmembers' signatures has been introduced at today's city council meeting. It will lay over two weeks for final adoption but will be supported by the majority of the City Council and the Mayor of the City of Saint Paul, Minnesota's second largest city. Whereas, one of the primary purposes of our Minnesota Constitution is to secure and protect the civil liberties and rights of all of our people; and Whereas, people of good will have different opinions on how and whether to address the rights and privileges for consenting adult couples who wish to recognize their unions but have historically not been permitted to marry; and Whereas, many such couples live in St. Paul or have families in St. Paul; Therefore be it resolved that the City of Saint Paul goes on record in opposition to a proposed amendment to the Minnesota Constitution prohibiting marriage other than between one man and one woman or the equivalent thereof --------------------------------------------------- An accompanying letter will be conveyed to the Saint Paul/ Ramsey Delegation stating: Dear Senator Moua and Representative Paymar, Enclosed is a resolution introduced today in the Saint Paul City Council. A majority of the Council has expressed its intention to pass this resolution at our next meeting. Mayor Kelly has indicated he will sign the resolution upon its passage. Sincerely, Dave Thune Councilmember, Ward 2 City of Saint Paul ------------------------------ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Finance Tax Center - File online.
