“Americans who believe in the words of the Declaration of Independence, in Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, in the 14th Amendment, and in the Constitution's guarantees of equal protection and equal dignity before the law cannot sit by while this wrong continues. This is not a conservative or liberal issue; it is an American one, and it is time that we, as Americans, embraced it.”- Theodore B. Olson, Co-Council to the plaintiff’s in the federal challenge to Proposition 8. 

January 20th is the anniversary of President Obama's first year in office and we plan to hold a demonstration and rally here in San Diego outside the federal building. This demonstration is one of our many efforts at getting our issues and concerns addressed. We expect our elected officials to fully represent all of the people and all of our issues. And we intend to let them know that the LGBT community is paying attention.

S.A.M.E. is rallying at University and Centre streets to demand Equal Rights for all LGBT Americans. We will not be forgotten by our Legislators and the 'Yes, We can' administration during the next 3 years!

Please join S.A.M.E. downtown in protesting the lack of action taken by our government representatives about EQUALITY, we demand the repeal of Prop H8, DOMA, DADT - NOW!!!
