The Rhode Island House Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on Wednesday May 2nd to consider homosexual-marriage, same-sex divorce, and the limiting of religious liberties. The hearing will be held on Wednesday May 2nd at approximately 4:30 PM in State House Room 313. Please make the time to come out and stand for marriage and our religious liberties in Rhode Island. The first bill attempts to redefine marriage for all Rhode Islanders by legalizing homosexual marriage. Further, the effort to allow same-sex couples who were married in other states to get divorced in Rhode Island is simply a back-door means to forcing our courts to recognize homosexual-marriage. Finally, the third bill would prohibit churches and their affiliated organizations from exercising their freedom of religion in matters concerning civil unions. For further information call 401-954-7173.
Marriage and our Religious Liberties need your presence and prayers at the State House on Wednesday May 2nd. Please take your stand this Wednesday.
