Will we hear your voice on November 4th?

This is an extremely important election year for our community. Take advantage of the opportunities below, and ensure that your voice will be heard.


No on 102 Yard Signs

No on Prop 102 yard signs are here at the Equality Arizona offices! Pick up your yard sign with a small donation of $5. All proceeds will go directly to the campaign against Prop 102, the so-called marriage amendment. For more information, contact Julie Roberts, Programs Coordinator, at 602.650.0900 or Julie@equalityarizona.org.

Equality Arizona's 2008 General Election Voter Guide is here!

Your support for the candidates endorsed by the Equality Arizona Political Action Committee will help to advance public policy that strengthens all families and guarantees equal protection to all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression. Find out which candidates support equality by visiting equalityarizona.org or download a PDF of the Voter Guide by clicking here.

Defeat Prop 102!

We need you to help Arizona Together and Equality Arizona NOW! Make your gift of $50 today to help us defeat Prop 102. Your gift will be split 50/50 between Arizona Together and Equality Arizona to help us keep our commercial on the airwaves and get our NO ON 102 message in as many homes as we can between now and November 4th.

We need to send a message to our State Legislature that it is time to focus on Arizona's real problems and not to create new ones. Help defeat Prop 102, the so-called marriage amendment.
