With so much news recently in the gay community, our new come organization has already been slammed by emails and tasks.

Our plans and vision are to set into motion a new proposition for the introduction of Civil Partnerships in the State of Arizona, it’s all about Equal Rights for same sex couples. Please tell us how you feel about this. Please keep in mind that we are focused on Equal Rights not the Word gay marriage.
