Barbara Boxer sent an email to her large list of California voters and donors today, asking them to support the fight against Prop 8.

Dear Friend,

Prop 8 is a statewide ballot initiative that would put discrimination against same-sex couples into the California State Constitution. It is unfair, unnecessary, and wrong.

Distractions and distortions. I know from personal experience that these are the tools of those who practice the politics of fear and division.

On Election Day, I hope you will reject these mean-spirited tactics and join me in voting No on Proposition 8.

Prop 8 is a statewide ballot initiative that would put discrimination against same-sex couples into the California State Constitution. It is unfair, unnecessary, and wrong.

Prop 8 will eliminate rights. Those are the facts. But that’s not what you’ll see on TV from the supporters of Prop 8. The Yes on 8 campaign is spending tens of millions of dollars to distort the facts and hide the true purpose of this divisive initiative.

The supporters of Prop 8 are making outlandish claims about what will happen if Prop 8 fails to pass. These are just distortions to distract voters from the fact that Prop 8 singles out a group of Californians for unfair treatment.

The only way we can fight against these extreme tactics is to make sure the No On 8 campaign has the support it needs to tell voters the truth about Prop 8. Click here to join the campaign today!

I know from experience that to beat the smear machine, you need grassroots supporters to help fight back. The No on 8 campaign has a statewide grassroots effort underway with house parties, phone banks and rallies across the state to spread the word about this unfair initiative.

Please take just a minute of your time to stand up to the politics of fear. Join the No on 8 campaign today!

Please join me and Vote No on 8. Thank you so much for your help and for your support of equality.

In Friendship,

Barbara Boxer
U.S. Senator
