To New York, with Rainbow Kisses…

As most of you probably heard, the New York State Senate voted down marriage equality despite herculean efforts by state and local grassroots organizations including Empire State Pride and New York Log Cabin Republicans.  You can find reports on the story here, here, here and here.  Today, though, I’d like to send Michigan’s Rainbow kisses to Senator Diane Savino for her amazing floor speech prior to the vote.  She’s not a professional speaker and her nerves were evident as her voice cracked and her hands shook… but I think each and every one of us should watch what a real ally looks like.

When I grow up, Senator Savino, I want to be an ally just like you.
