SAME SEX MARRIAGE: Repeal would upend people’s lives

I am a resident of Idaho. My family was born and raised in Sandpoint, Idaho. It came to my attention that the Mass Resistance Right Wing Group is pushing to make Idaho’s first act of legislature “repeal the same sex marriage act.” Really? Is that the most important thing to the state of Idaho? I can think of much more pressing matters such as school funding, housing, food prices, economy, etc. I am truly appalled how anyone could be so hateful to upend people’s lives. We are talking families that rely on each other for health care, etc. These citizens contribute in a positive way to their communities such as doctors, teachers, firefighters, etc. Idaho is supposed to be a free state but extreme religious views are running our state’s agenda. Please do not support this action in the name of humanity.
