SECOND CLASS FAMILY

My family just moved to Washington State from MASS. In Mass Same-Sex Marriage is legel. My partner and I married soon after it became legel. We have been together for 25 years, and we have a 9 year old son. Our new Senator in WA is Senator Randi Becker PO Box 40402, Olympia, WA 98504 1-800-562-6000 or Becker.Randi@leg.wa.gov

I wrote Senator Becker to find out more about her and how she felt about Same-Sex Marriage. Here is her letter on this.

Dear James,

Thank you so much for contacting me and sharing your thoughts on domestic partnerships. As I am sure you know Senate Bill 5688 passed the senate on March 10th. I voted against this bill.

This is a very emotional subject for many people. For people of faith it is especially difficlt. And I can tell it is very important to you.

This is a subject you and I are going to disagree on. Although I completely respect your point of view, I feel strogngly that the traditional American Family is under attack. Children are being taught to be "tolerant" of every type of lifestyle, even if it goes against their family's basic belief system. Parent's who insturct their children on moral and ethical basics are often called bigots. I am storng supporter of the traditional family.

In the state of Washington, Domestic Partnerships are recognized. There are provisions in law for all the legal issues that have been brought up. I do not think this bill was necessory.

Thank you again for contacting me. Please do not hesitate to let me know if there is any whay I can ve of service to you in the future.

Sincerely
Senator Randi Becker
2nd Legislative District


I was shocked after read this letter. She called my family Second Class, and said others should not be tolerant of your family.
